Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese really don't seem all that concerned with winning WNBA Rookie of the Year

Both Indiana Fever rookie guard Caitlin Clark and Chicago Sky rookie forward Angel Reese are vying for the 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year honor, but you won't catch either of them putting it above the team.

Ahead of the superstar duo's final regular season game in Chicago, Clark and Reese both indicated that they're not too focused on winning Rookie of the Year as opposed to just making sure they win with their team.

“I think me and Angel would both give you the same answer," Clark told reporters before the game, per IndySports' Chloe Peterson. "We don’t wake up and think about individual awards.”

Clark was right, as Reese shared the exact same sentiment.

“We don’t either care about the Rookie of the Year," Reese told reporters, via the Chicago Tribune's Julia Poe. "I think you guys have made it a big thing.”

Dallas Wings superstar Arike Ogunbowale hinted this week that she doesn't buy the notion of a rivalry between the two rookie sensations, and it doesn't seem to be quite the narrative that was assumed at the start of the season.

Clark will probably walk away with the honor after breaking so many WNBA records, but both of these players will have great WNBA careers regardless of how this award goes.
