Clark arrived in the WNBA to a media frenzy after she was selected as the No. 1 overall pick by the Indiana Fever.
The 22-year-old has lived up to the hype and is currently averaging 16 points, 7.1 assists, and 5.7 rebounds.
Reese, who plays for the Chicago Sky, has upped her performances in recent weeks and has recorded 12 straight double-doubles.
McNutt was asked which rookie she believed was the frontrunner for the prestigious gong.
And her method of deciding between Clark and Reese split WNBA fans.
“My Rookie of the Year is going to go based on the standings,” McNutt argued.
“That is how you have the opportunity to measure impact.
“So, you’d have to give the nod in my mind to Angel Reese.”
McNutt praised Reese for her double-double run, but added Clark had been “incredibly impressive.”
The former college basketball star also pointed out that Clark is playing alongside last year’s No. 1 overall draft pick Aliyah Boston.
“This race is a lot closer than some people think,” she concluded.
“It should be about basketball and their play,” argued one ESPN viewer on X.
“This is absolutely insane logic. The Sky has a half-game lead over the Fever for one. For two, the Fever were literally the worst team in the league last year. For three, Angel Reese isn’t half the basketball player Caitlin Clark is,” argued another.
“This is exactly how people treat Mike Trout [in MLB]. Clark is the MVP. Doesn’t matter the standings”, said a third.
“They just don’t want Clark to win it. Clark’s schedule is harder too,” added a fourth.
“So by this logic, A’ja Wilson, the best player in the league, wouldn’t win MVP because the Aces are currently 5th in the standings?” complained a fifth.
Neither the Sky nor the Fever have enjoyed winning seasons so far despite Reese and Clark’s excellent performances.
The Sky are currently 8-11 following an 88-84 win over th
Reese scored 28 points and added 10 rebounds to continue her double-double streak.
While Clark and the Fever are 8-15 and face the New York Liberty on Saturday night.
