Myles Garrett suggests optimal way to settle Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese's ROTY debate

WNBA rookies Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese are at the heart of the debate for the Rookie of the Year award. The race is seemingly neck-and-neck between the Indiana Fever court general and the Chicago Sky double-double machine.

Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett offered his own solution to the hotly contested race, saying they should share the award.

"Can we do a co? That's been done before," Garrett said in a street interview with Heavy Sports.

Contrary to Garrett's answer, the award has actually never been shared by two rookies before. But he did explain his rationale well, giving both young stars there props for their play so far.

“I mean, Reese has been playing well with her streak of double-doubles," he said. "But Caitlin has been putting up great numbers as a rookie, as well. Honestly, great numbers for just — in general.”

Caitlin Clark is averaging 16.8 points and 7.8 assists per game this season for the Fever. She's put up a double-double with assists in six of her last eight games and has the Fever climbing up the standings in the Eastern Conference.

Angel Reese is averaging 13.5 points and 12 rebounds per game for the Sky. Her now-WNBA record 15 straight games with a double-double came to an end in her last game against the New York Liberty on Saturday.

The last time the two played each other, the Sky held on for a one-point victory over the Fever. Clark finished with 17 points and 13 assists, while Reese scored a game-high 25 points and pulled down 16 rebounds.

Caitlin Clark appears to stare down Cheryl Reeve following fourth quarter takeover

Caitlin Clark and the Fever were heading into Minnesota Sunday with a matchup against the Lynx and their head coach Cheryl Reeve, who before the game stated that she could care less if her home stadium is going to be filled with Clark supporters.

Reeve is also the coach of the USA women's basketball team heading off to the 2024 Paris Olympics this summer. The team gained controvery after not selecting Clark for the roster this summer.

The Fever took off in the final frame, outscoring the Lynx 28-14 and erasing a deficit they held most of the game. When Clark and Co. wrapped up the game, she seemingly gave an extended glance towards Reeve and the Lynx bench.

Clark finished the game with 17 points and six assists, one of her less-imposing outings this month.
