The 2024 WNBA season has centered on standout rookies Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever and Angel Reese of the Chicago Sky, who engaged in a heated race for the Rookie of the Year award. While Clark initially gained the edge, her momentum waned as the season progressed.
Meanwhile, Las Vegas Aces’ A’ja Wilson has consistently showcased her talent, emerging as the leading MVP candidate throughout the year. Together, these three players have made this season one of the most remarkable in league history. As the regular season wraps up, they have all received recognition through the WNBA’s Peak Performers awards.
Wilson topped the league in scoring with an impressive 26.9 points per game, Clark led in assists with 8.4 per game, and Reese dominated the boards, averaging 13.1 rebounds. For rookies to excel in these categories is remarkable, and being mentioned alongside a player like Wilson is a significant achievement. The WNBA’s future looks promising with such talent emerging.
