ESPN’s Andraya Carter wants to take names on the Rookie of the Year vote.
Caitlin Clark was awarded the honor on Thursday, but not everyone was on the same page for the Indiana star to take the award home.
Clark received 66 out of 67 possible votes.
The sole outlier vote went to Clark’s rival since college, Angel Reese, who was also a top candidate until going out with a season-ending wrist injury.
“Hats off to Caitlin, should have been unanimous, but I’ll stop there,” the “WNBA Countdown” co-host said on Friday.
Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark (22) possesses the ball during the first half against the Connecticut Sun during game two of the first round of the 2024 WNBA Playoffs at Mohegan Sun Arena.
“No no no, I’m (going to) pick it up because she should have been a unanimous Rookie of the Year,” fellow co-host Chiney Ogwumike said.
“Ever since Angel Reese had that injury, and also coming off of Olympic break, Caitlin Clark separated herself. She should have been unanimous.”Clark, who helped lead the Fever to their first playoff appearance since 2016, broke several records throughout her rookie season.
She earned the first two triple-doubles by a rookie in the league and set the all-time single-season record of 337 assists.
Clark averaged 19.2 points, 8.4 assists, and 5.7 rebounds.
After a tough schedule to start the season for the Fever, Clark and her teammates’ chemistry grew over time and they found their stride after the Olympic break.
“If you were the person who had that one vote, you should be able to stand on it, and we should know who you are”

Towards the end of the regular season, they had key victories over the Liberty and Sun, who they eventually fell to in the first round of the playoffs.
“And this is why we would love for the WNBA to make voting not anonymous,” Carter said. “Because if you were the person that had that one vote, you should just be able to stand on it and we should know who you are, In the NBA, voting is not anonymous. So I would love for the WNBA to make the voting. . . so that we see who put the votes where.”
The panel of four woman agreed unanimously on the matter during ESPN’s pregame show for the Sun and Lynx Game 3 matchup on Friday.
The person who threw a vote to Reese has yet to make himself or herself known.
