    Chennedy Carter Blasts ESPN Over List That Ranks Her Below Caitlin Clark

    By Michael Gallagher,

    4 hours ago

    ESPN recently released its rankings of the top 25 players in the WNBA, and Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Carter was less than thrilled with her spot on the list.

    Among the top 25 players, Carter was ranked 24th — five spots below her rookie teammate Angel Reese, who was 19th, and nine spots below Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark, who was 15th.

    “How I average less minutes and my stats top in the league??? but I am at the BOTTOM this isn't adding up, the hate be so obvious,” she wrote.

    Carter’s frustrations seem valid.

    A’ja Wilson, Dearica Hamby and Nneka Ogwumike are the only players in the top 12 in scoring with a higher scoring efficiency than Carter, who also has the sixth-best field-goal percentage of any player in ESPN’s top 25.

    Despite averaging the fewest minutes (25.1) of any player in the top 35 in scoring, she ranks 13th in the league with 17.2 points per game. Carter is also sixth in made field goals per game (7.3), 10th in field-goal percentage (51.8) and tied for 18th in steals per game (1.3).

    Not to mention Carter leads the Sky in scoring and is second on the team in field-goal percentage, scoring efficiency and shooting efficiency.
