    Both Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese are shattering records in their rookie WNBA campaigns.

    Clark became the first rookie in WNBA history to record a triple-double on Saturday. Reese broke the all-time record for consecutive double-doubles with her 13th on Sunday.

    Clark entered the season as the overwhelming favorite to win Rookie of the Year. While the Indiana Fever's No. 1 overall pick still holds the odds advantage, Reese is starting to close the gap.

    During the most recent episode of Undisputed , Skip Bayless made his Rookie of the Year selection between Clark and Reese.

    "I would have to, at the halfway point, go with Angel [Reese] over Caitlin [Clark]," Bayless said. "... Caitlin Clark now has 42 more turnovers than any other player in the league... It's hard to overcome that."

    "I look at what Angel has done on the offensive glass. It's beyond comprehension to me that she has 35 more offensive rebounds than anybody in the league as a rookie," Bayless continued.

    Clark and Reese were both selected as WNBA All-Stars in their debut campaigns. The two rookies will team up to face off against Team USA in a highly-anticipated matchup on July 20.

    Clark and Reese then have the rest of the 2024 season to battle it out for Rookie of the Year.
