Reese and she's not pulling any punches she's all about those grown woman numbers Reese is putting up but that's not all peak's looking at the bigger picture she's pointing to the Chicago Skies playoff position as a major factor in her words when you look at where the teams are Angel Reese has to get the nod and peak's not alone in this thinking Monica mcnut is right there with her backing Reese for the top rookie honor mcnutt's laser focused on team success and she's not shy about it Advantage Clark on Sheldon Clark has been shall we say spectacular this back benley here's Clark a good

seem to be overlooking Clark's game-changing performances you've got to wonder our team records really the Beall and end all sure this guy might be in a better position but what about Clark's personal stats her assists her scoring her ability to elevate her entire team there's a lot more to this story than just win loss columns while the analysts debate Caitlyn Clark's been busy setting the court on fire here Caitlyn Clark just dancing with the basketball going to her left to push the pace Clark showing off the moves Clark oh to the rim remember that matchup against the Chicago Sky everyone was talking about Clark didn't just show up she made history and it's not just one game she's been on a tear that's making the Roy race look like old news let's talk about what Clark's been doing since the Olympic break she's been putting up numbers that would make seasoned vets jealous we're talking averages of 24.6 points 5.0 rebounds and 9.0 assists per game that's not rookie play that's Superstar material had that girl cook she cut ass oh man could that corn hour girl blessing y'all ass y'all say she too weak she can't do this because the moment she gets the ball she's looking out hey she ain't trying to dribble show how Fant I can dribble the ball remember that game against the Chicago sky Clark went off for 31 points and dished out 12 assists meanwhile Angel Reese she struggled managing only 10 points and 11 rebounds it's like they were playing two different games but here's where things get really crazy Clark just did something no rookie in WNBA or NBA history has ever done she's the first to record 25 plus points 10 plus assists and five plus three-pointers in back-to-back games that's not just breaking records that's shattering them and we're not done yet Clark's the first rookie in WNBA history to hit 600 points and 250 assists in a single season only eight rookies have ever scored over 600 points and Clark's in that Elite group but she's not just scoring she's setting up her teammates too in the last seven games Clark step back hits a three two buckets for the fever Caitlyn Clark for three Ratt know what's even Wilder Clark holds the record for the most double doubles by a guard in a single WNBA season she's not just a scorer or just a passer she's the total package but here's the thing Clark's impact goes beyond the stats she's changing the game Dallas Wings forward satu sabali said it best it's exciting to see so many fans in Caitlyn J jerseys Clark's not just playing the game she's growing it Clark's not just filling stat sheets she's filling Arenas ever wonder what it looks like when a rookie becomes the heartbeat of an entire league if I'm Caitlin Clark I told scolar Diggins get your coat your brim and get on out of our gym that a no accident she Spar up yeah yeah she Spar up real quick hey you think that was an accident oo hold on hold on hold on hold on oh brace yourself because cait Clark's impact on the WNBA is nothing short of revolutionary let's talk numbers but not just the ones on the scoreboard the Indiana Fever have seen a mindblowing surge in attendance this season we're talking over 500,000 fans packing the stands that's not just a little bump it's a full-on explosion of interest and you know who's at the center of it all yep Caitlyn Clark but it's not just about butts and seats Clark's changing the game in ways we've never seen before Nancy Lieberman a basketball legend herself put it perfectly she called Clark's impact generational Clark comes down there's one of those long passes oh little FR inside the ark here is Clark with some space Clark behind the back oh showing off the moves it's Boston think about that for a second we're not just watching a great rookie season we're watching history unfold right before our eyes and Clark's not doing it alone her partnership with Kelsey Mitchell is like watching fireworks on the 4th of July these two are lighting up scoreboard across the league their combined scoring average it's off the charts they're not just teammates they're a dynamic duo that's giving Defenders nightmares here's the crazy part Clark's already being recognized as one of the best in the WNBA not one of the best rookies one of the best players period and now she's in the record book once again with her third assist today she set a new single Mark set by a rookie he should pen aero's record for most assists in a season by a rookie she already held the record for the the most assistant a single game which is 19 she's setting new standards for what a firste player can do records are falling left and right and Clark's name is all over them but it's more than just personal accolades Clark's electrifying performances are drawing attention from
