    Caitlin Clark has established herself as one of the best players in the WNBA, despite playing in her first season with the Indiana Fever.

    Clark hasn't just dominated the rookie class. She's among the best players in the WNBA, consistently compared to some of the best guards like Sabrina Ionescu, Diana Taurasi, and Chelsea Gray.

    The Fever recently posted a photo of Clark, showing a few of her incredible accomplishments through her rookie season.

    Indiana posted photos of Clark with her WNBA stats, sharing a confident message that reads, "It's no contest."

    Caitlin Clark currently leads all rookies in six statistical categories. She's the No. 1 player in the rookie class in terms of points, steals, and assists per game, as well as free throw percentage, three-pointers made, and field goals made.

    During the first half of the 2024 WNBA season, Clark averaged 17.1 points, 8.2 assists, and 1.5 steals per game.

    She's also garners an 89.1 free throw percentage, while connecting on 71 three-pointers, and 138 field goals.

    Clark has been extremely dominant in the rookie class, with Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese being her only true competitor for the WNBA's Rookie of the Year award.

    Reese is currently averaging 13.5 points and 11.9 rebounds, ranked as the No. 2 player in the WNBA in terms of rebounds per game.

    The Indiana Fever may have hinted that the Rookie of the Year race is "no contest," but Reese has certainly made the debate interesting.
