WNBA rookie of the year candidate Caitlin Clark said a season-ending injury to Angel Reese is devastating and “never anything you want to see.” Clark reacted to Reese’s situation prior to the Indiana Fever’s 104-100 overtime win Sunday over the Atlanta Dream.
“It’s definitely sad whenever you see anyone go down with an injury, especially people that you came into this league with,” Clark said, via the Indianapolis Star. “You want to see her finish out this year. Obviously, she’s had a historic year, and she’s done some incredible things. For me, getting to play against her, her motor is up there — if not the best in the league. She just doesn’t stop working. I thought she had a tremendous year. I thought she came into the league and really did what she’s done well her entire career as long as I’ve known her.
“It’s really devastating. It’s never anything you want to see from a player.”
