Today, women’s basketball in the U.S. is buzzing again with a fresh argument between two big stars: Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. Experts recently announced that Caitlin Clark, the skilled player from the Indiana Fever, is the top point guard in the WNBA. They praised her amazing performance last season, where she broke records with her scoring, smart plays, and confidence on the court. Many see her as one of the best young talents in the league.

But not everyone is on board with this decision. Angel Reese, a star from the Chicago Sky and Clark’s rival since their college days, quickly spoke up. In an interview after the announcement, Reese said she doesn’t think Clark deserves the title yet. “Caitlin’s good, but let’s not rush this,” Reese said plainly. She argued that while Clark has skills, she isn’t humble enough and hasn’t proven herself in big games against tough opponents.
Reese went further, saying Clark’s success comes a lot from her teammates and the team’s strategy built around her. Meanwhile, Reese bragged about her own all-around game. “I don’t just score—I defend, grab rebounds, and lift up my team,” she said. She believes being the #1 point guard should depend on more than just numbers.
This isn’t the first time these two have clashed. Back in their NCAA days, Clark and Reese often faced off, both in games and with words, making their rivalry one of the most exciting stories in women’s basketball. Fans jumped online right away to defend their favorites. Some cheered for Clark, calling her the future of the WNBA, while others backed Reese, saying she’s underrated and deserves more credit.
No matter what, the competition between Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese is making the WNBA even more fun to watch. As the new season gets closer, everyone will be watching their games to see who truly earns the #1 spot—not just on the list, but in the fans’ hearts too.
