And the hatred for Caitlin Clark continues!
It's a safe bet that Kaitlyn Clark will win the WNBA Rookie of the Year award once the smoke clears this season, but despite that small fact, the debate is still on between Clark and the Chicago Sky superstar as to who will take home the trophy. Angel Reese.
On Saturday night against the WNBA's best team (the New York Liberty), Clark made history by becoming the first rookie in history to record a triple-double. 38 min Clark had 19 points, 13 assists and 12 rebounds to lead her team to an 83-78 victory over Liberty, who fell to 17-4. (Related: Caitlin Clark isn't just an elite rich person, she's one of the classiest)
This performance makes Clark a likely Rookie of the Year.
But as is often the case in the women's world, the hate ensues and Sky decided to subtly attack Clarke on social media – and do so on the very day she made history.

“THE” front-runner…LOL. It's funny how Caitlin Clark is now hated by the entire franchise.

If I were Caitlin I would love this…oh my god does the whole team hate you?
That's a success.
