Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese earned the No. 1 spot in CBS Sports’ WNBA Rookie Rankings this week by putting together multiple well-rounded performances. The former LSU star recently became the first WNBA player this season to register double-doubles with five-plus steals in two consecutive games.
At No. 2 is Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark, who had her second 30-point performance of the season — plus a career-high seven 3-pointers — in a 85-83 win against the Mystics on Friday. Clark’s Fever and Reese’s Sky are set to meet Sunday at noon ET on CBS.
Meanwhile, Washington Mystics forward Aaliyah Edwards has reentered the list at No. 5 after tallying a career-high 23 points, 14 rebounds and four blocks against the Sky.
The sun is also shining bright in Los Angeles, as Rickea Jackson and Cameron Brink are giving the Sparks some great minutes. Los Angeles recently earned its biggest win of 2024 on Sunday against the Las Vegas Aces, and Jackson played a key role late in that game.
