WNBA 2024 rookie tracker: Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, more
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter


As the 2024 WNBA draft class continues to impact this season, we’re tracking the performances from top rookies every game day.

Players will be added or subtracted based on performance and injury.

Some rookies, such as Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever and Angel Reese of the Chicago Sky, have started every game for their teams.

One lottery pick, Los Angeles Sparks rookie Cameron Brink, is out for the rest of the season after suffering a torn ACL in mid-June.

Angel Reese moved to tears after hearing about All-Star selection

Sky rookie Angel Reese is emotional in her postgame news conference after finding out that she was named an All-Star.

Last time out: Reese had yet another historic outing in the Sky’s 85-77 road win Tuesday over the Atlanta Dream: With 12 points and 19 rebounds (5 offensive), she extended her consecutive double-double streak to 11 games — a WNBA single-season record and the second longest in WNBA history. Her 19 boards were the most by any player in a game this season and catapulted her into a tie with Cheryl Ford as the third-fastest player to reach 200 career rebounds (only Yolanda Griffith and Tina Charles had more). The former LSU star also set a new Sky rookie record for rebounds with 213 — and she achieved it in just 18 games.

What we learned: What a day for Reese. She was named WNBA rookie of the month for June earlier in the afternoon and then was emotional after the game discussing her All-Star selection, which was announced that evening. And as Tuesday showed, Reese is only continuing to improve and get more comfortable in the pros and with the Sky: She’s one of four players in league history to average 15 points and 15 boards over a six-game span, joining all-time greats Sylvia Fowles (2012), Charles (2010) and Griffith (1999, 2001). — Alexa Philippou

Last time out: Stop us if you’ve heard this one before: Another huge crowd showed up on the road to see Clark and her Fever teammates. On the Fever’s desert road swing to Phoenix on Sunday and Las Vegas on Tuesday, the combined attendance was 37,437.

Tuesday’s game didn’t have the ending the Fever wanted. The Aces held them to 10 points in the fourth quarter, as Las Vegas won 88-69 before a T-Mobile Arena capacity crowd of 20,366.

Clark finished with 13 points on 4-of-12 shooting, 11 assists and 6 rebounds.

What we learned: The good for the Fever was that they were close through three quarters, and they won the board battle 44-38. Indiana shot 36.4% from the field, 23.1% from 3-point range.

Clark, who dealt with a migraine in the win over Phoenix, felt better Tuesday. She said the Aces were just too good.

Despite the loss, there were positives for the Fever: the huge crowd and the fact that Clark, Aliyah Boston, and Kelsey Mitchell were all named All-Stars.

“This is really exciting for Caitlin,” said Boston, who last year was also an All-Star as a rookie. “Being a rookie coming in and just having an impact the way she does.” — Michael Voepel

Up next: vs. New York Liberty on Saturday (1 p.m. ET, CBS)

Last time out: Chicago’s guard play accounted for the bulk of the damage offensively Tuesday against Atlanta, but Cardoso did her part with 8 points on 3-for-9 shooting, plus 10 rebounds. It’s the fifth time in her past six games that she has recorded double-digit boards.

What we learned: Cardoso made a big play at the end of the game with a putback off a free throw miss that put the Sky up eight with 20.9 seconds to play. But she had another memorable moment in the first 10 seconds of the game: After blocking an early shot from Cardoso, Charles appeared to give some guidance to the rookie during a play stoppage, and the two shared some smiles and a laugh during the exchange. The more a rookie like Cardoso can absorb from an all-time great post in Charles, either through conversations or the experience of going up against her, the better. — Philippou

Forward | 6-foot-3 | Game log | Stats

Last time out: Edwards had a somewhat quiet outing in the Mystics’ 82-80 comeback win over the Sparks in Los Angeles on Tuesday, finishing with 6 points (3-for-8 shooting) and 5 rebounds in 21 minutes. Since returning from a back injury the game prior, she has been coming off the bench for Washington, which has gotten strong play from forward Myisha Hines-Allen over the past week. Thanks in part to Edwards, the Mystics’ bench outscored the Sparks’ 29-11.

What we learned: Tuesday was still a big day for Edwards, who earned her second Olympic berth with the Canadian national team. Coincidentally she faced off that evening against one of her Team Canada teammates in the Sparks’ Kia Nurse. Though Edwards didn’t have a large role in Tokyo, it’ll be fascinating to see how she fares in Paris with more collegiate and now professional experience under her belt and on a squad that still skews young. — Philippou

Last time out: Jackson has been prone to scoring spurts this season, a trend that continued Tuesday in the Sparks’ loss to the Mystics: The former Tennessee star scored seven of her 12 points in the first quarter, leading L.A. in scoring that frame. But after starting 3-for-5 from the field, Jackson went 2-for-7 the rest of the way.

What we learned: Jackson’s versatility as a scorer gets a lot of attention. On Tuesday, she scored twice on layups after moving without the ball, once on a turnaround fadeaway drive and twice more on 3-pointers. Her four assists were also season high — three of which resulted in treys from teammates, while the other was a product of a two-man game in which she delivered a beautiful dime to Dearica Hamby. Jackson also tied her season-best mark of three offensive boards, all of which came as key hustle plays in the fourth quarter with the Sparks trying to cling to their lead. — Philippou

Up next: at Las Vegas Aces on Friday (10 p.m. ET, ION)
