    Caitlin Clark was named first-team All-WNBA on Wednesday as the league announced the final vote tallies for the honor. However, some were once again scratching their head over another potential snub.

    Clark received 52 out of a possible 67 first-team votes, while another 14 voted her second-team All-WNBA. That meant one voter left Clark off their ballot entirely in a rather confusing omission.

    Many did not see it as coincidence that Clark was also denied unanimous Rookie of the Year honors by one vote as well.

    Clark started all 40 regular season games for the Indiana Fever and averaged 19.2 points per game to go with a league-best 8.4 assists per game and 122 three-pointers. Statistically, she had a fairly overwhelming case for All-WNBA honors, but it certainly looks like one anonymous voter keeps registering some form of protest.

    The WNBA does not make awards balloting public, though some would like to see that change . Unless the voter in question decides to reveal themselves, who omitted her — and whether it is the same voter in both instances — will remain a mystery.

    I'm thinking one voters is too cowardly to admit they have a petty grudge. Does anyone know if Swoopes is a voter?
