Assuming they switch sports and have a week to train for it, who's better - Spencer Lee @ guard for Indiana or Caitlin Clark @ 57kg?
 
Well considering CC is 6' and is already fit I doubt she can drop another 20lbs+ to get down to 57kg.

However she is incredibly athletic, I could see her handling herself well on the mat.

But throwing a 5'3" Spencer onto a court with professionals seems cruel.

But neither is doing anything within a week, that's a dumb question. If you had phrased it "If they played those sports from the get-go could they yada yada?" then maybe, but I'm still giving the edge to CC. Lee is just too short for bball.

Wrestlers, especially good wrestlers, cannot play basketball. like not even a little bit. It’s an unwritten rule wrestlers give up all coordination and ball handling ability when they choose wrestling.
It stands out in a weird way, watching wrestlers try to basketball.

Ball handling and shooting require finesse.

I cannot think of one wrestling position that requires finesse; only strength and balance. You execute every position to maximize the power you can exert while maintaining your own balance.

Ever find yourself with a wide open look at a 3 in a pick up game?
I bet you missed about 10 long on your first shot attempt.
