Angel Reese should win WNBA Rookie of the Year, says Sky teammate Chennedy Carter

“Barbie’s Rookie of the Year. There’s no other way to put it, ” said Carter, referring to Reese by her nickname. “She goes out, she does her work every single night, no matter what team we’re facing. I’m telling you, Barbie’s Rookie of the Year, for sure.”

Caitlin Clark fans will have something to say about that, naturally. The Indiana Fever star and No. 1 overall pick is averaging 16 points, 5.7 rebounds and 7.1 assists per game.

However, Reese is averaging 13.9 points and her 11.7 rebounds per game lead the WNBA. Reese’s supporters would surely argue that she’s having more of an impact on a game by leading the league in a major statistical category.

More on Angel Reese

Both rookies were named to the WNBA All-Star Game and will play for Team WNBA vs. Team USA in the league’s midseason showcase on July 20. Reese was moved to tears when she learned of her All-Star bid, demonstrating how much the recognition means to her while she’s often portrayed as the villain in her rivalry with Clark.

Clark’s popularity was reflected in her drawing the most All-Star fan votes with 700,735. She’s also the betting favorite for WNBA Rookie of the Year. But the award is presumably based on merit, not popularity. Reese’s improvement and rebounding are making a very strong case for her. If voting for the award was up to Carter and her Sky teammates, Reese would likely win in a runaway.
