Caitlin Clark knows everyone will make a big deal out of her being teammates with Angel Reese at the All-Star Game, and she wants the attention elsewhere.
For the first time in their careers, Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese will be teammates. The rookie phenoms were both named WNBA All-Stars Tuesday, meaning they will suit up together July 20. Clark earned the most votes of any player in the league and was the only player to collect over 700,000 votes. Reese was fifth in votes.
The history between the two dates back to last year's college national championship, and they've developed a must-watch rivalry. Clark recently dismissed the suggestion there is a rivalry between the two. But make no mistake, the two playing through all their drama over the last 15 months is a story. Clark knows it, too, but she says there are more important things to focus on.
don’t want it to take away from any of that and just be the focal point of All-Star weekend because that’s not fair to them. And, obviously, this is something that’s really hard to accomplish. The best we can celebrate all of them will be great, and I’m just obviously going to soak in the experience because you never know if you’re ever going to be able to get back there. It’ll be fun for all of us, for sure.' Clark is averaging 16 points and 7.
