Caitlin Clark is one of the top rookies in the WNBA when it comes to scoring and assists.
She’s also one of the league’s top trash talkers, if one coach is to be believed.
Las Vegas Aces head coach Becky Hammon said that while Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese gets a lot of attention for on-court chatter, Clark is right up there, too.
“Look, at the end of the day, (Clark and Reese) are really super-skilled. They’re fun to watch,” Hammon said Thursday night at a press conference with Sky head coach Teresa Weatherspoon. “And they jaw at each other, you know?
“No one talks more crap than Caitlin, too. I saw (Angel) and NaLyssa (Smith) get into it the other day. It’s a different generation. I think we talked subtly, but they be talking in your face, which is fine. Let them go. They’re big girls.”
When she’s not engaging in on-court banter, Clark is averaging 16.3 points and 6.6 assists per game. Reese is averaging 13.2 points and 11.1 rebounds per game.
