Caitlin Clark just missed out on sweeping the field for WNBA Rookie of the Year … and it’s all thanks to one single vote for her rival, Angel Reese.The results dropped after the Indiana Fever star was officially named ROY on Thursday … and considering all the history she made this season, many were shocked to see anyone but Clark earning a vote.

The count was 66 to 1 …. with Clark gathering the whopping majority — and the Chicago Sky star getting the outlier.Granted, both rookies were battling for the award until the second half of the season … when Clark took the lead by breaking the WNBA rookie scoring record, setting the single-season assists record, and being the only rookie to get a triple-double.She also led the Fever to the WNBA playoffs for the first time since 2016.

That’s not to say Reese didn’t do her thing this season — she set the rebounding record, but it wasn’t enough to get the Sky to the playoffs, as they were the third-worst team on the 2024 campaign.She also missed the last handful of games with a wrist injury … which ultimately ended her ROY run.
