Since being taken No. 1 overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft by the Indiana Fever, it has been presumed Caitlin Clark will be the Rookie of the Year.
Early on, nothing Clark has done in her first season in the league has dispelled the notion that she is deserving. However, when South Carolina women’s basketball coach Dawn Staley was asked who she believed was the Rookie of the Year to date, she picked another player (and a former rival to boot): Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese.
“They both are having great years – don’t get me wrong,” Staley told TMZ Sports. “If I had to pick a Rookie of the Year at this time… today, it’s Angel. Not a doubt. What she’s been able to do with the double-doubles.”
Of course, Staley has played both Clark and Reese. The Gamecocks defeated Clark and lowa in the national championship game to complete a perfect season. USC also beat LSU twice last season, including in the SEC Tournament Championship game
