Telling Stat Could Make the Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese WNBA Rookie of the Year Debate Crystal Clear

The WNBA has finally returned to action, and the debate talks between Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever and Angel Reese of the Chicago Sky have continued. Though it's difficult to compare them as players, the main debate is for the Rookie of the Year award.

While it was extremely close for a good portion of the season, and even favored Angel Reese for a short period, Caitlin Clark found a rhythm that may carry her to the award. That said, there are still a lot of people who are also looking to put an end to the debate between the players themselves.

Thankfully, there's one efficiency stat that could help with that, as not only does it prove that Clark is an incredible scorer, but it displays the efficiency gap between her and Reese.

The shooting chart displays that Clark is significantly above league average in the midrange, and up to par with the league in just about every other area on the court. On the other hand, Reese is well below league average in nearly every spot, which is concerning, to say the least.

While they are very different players, the fundamental skill levels between the two players just aren't close right now. Reese does have the potential to be one of the best players in the league on both ends, but Clark, at least statistically, has been the more complete player thus far.
