ROY Favorite Caitlin Clark Ignoring Noise, Pushing to Fringes of WNBA MVP Discussion

It's also a fact that the team around Clark has been cooking. According to StatMamba, Kelsey Mitchell is the first player in WNBA history to go on a five-game win streak averaging 25 points per game, 55 percent accuracy for two, 40 percent accuracy for three and 90 percent on free throws. She's also leading the team in points with 19, to Clark's 18.9. Aliyah Boston is averaging 13.7 points, 9.1 (!) rebounds, 3.1 assists, and 1.4 blocks.

Three things can be true at the same time: 1. All of these players and head coach Christie Sides deserve to be celebrated for their individual accomplishments and contributions to team success. 2. The team structure worked perfectly where Clark could slide in and become Boston's missing link. You need to credit the Fever for having the correct supporting cast, like Boston in the frontcourt. 3. Nothing helps the rest of the team cook quite like a prolific guard entering the chat. Just look at Lexi Hull's shooting improvement.
