Watkins averages 7.2 rebounds per game and her steal/block numbers are better than Caitlin’s. Caitlin’s shooting percentages are better by almost 6 percentage points. She is averaging more assists this year but still a ways of Caitlin’s pace. Curiously her ppg has gone down about 5 per game so far this year as the assist have gone up. At the end of the day, people will debate the CC/JW being the goat for years provided juju keeps this up. Both sides may have a legitimate argument.
I still say the all time scoring leader is what everyone will always talk about and what will get the media's attention. And right now, as everyone knows, that is Caitlin Clark.
Sure, CC gets noticed with her amazing passing, but at the end of the day the attention is on points, not rebounds & assists.
