Caitlin Clark has just been named WNBA Rookie of the Year following an impressive performance. The debate over the award has often centered on whether to prioritize rebounds and double-doubles or points and assists, as both Clark and Angel Reese excel in different areas.
However, it’s important to address a troubling trend: some opinions on the Rookie of the Year race appear influenced by race rather than performance. Many seem to publicly support one player to align with their social circles, despite privately feeling differently.
Caitlin Clark ranks in the top 10 for points per game, leads the league in assists, and has set multiple WNBA records, including those for assists in a game and being the first rookie to achieve a triple-double. In contrast, Angel Reese leads in rebounds and has set records for consecutive double-doubles.
Yet, historically, scoring and assists have been valued more than rebounds in determining awards. Caitlin Clark’s achievements clearly warrant her recognition as Rookie of the Year. As the Indiana Fever head into the playoffs, it’s time to acknowledge her contributions honestly and fairly.
