LeBron James Backs Caitlin Clark for WNBA Honor

Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever delivered a stellar performance against Angel Reese's Chicago Sky, leading her team to a 100-81 victory and solidifying her position in the Rookie of the Year race. Clark scored a career-high 31 points, along with 12 assists and four rebounds, while Reese contributed with 10 points and 11 rebounds. Following the game, LeBron James publicly supported Clark on social media, igniting speculation due to a resurfaced tweet from Reese that had previously criticized James' performance during the Lakers' 2021 playoff loss. This rivalry, rooted in their collegiate days, continues to captivate fans as both players excel in their rookie seasons. Clark has set several records, including most games by a rookie with over 20 points and 10 assists, while Reese holds the record for most double-doubles by a rookie. The ongoing competition between these two stars adds excitement to the WNBA season.
