There appears to be little debate among WNBA fans over who will win this year's Rookie of the Year award.

A map created by BetOnline.ag based on geotagged X data gathered since the end of the WNBA's Olympic break, including over 170,000 tweets, shows Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark is the most popular pick to win the award in 45 states across the U.S. Five states favor Chicago Sky's Angel Reese.

Clark, the No. 1 overall pick of the 2024 WNBA Draft, is averaging 18.7 points, 8.4 assists, and 5.6 rebounds per game while shooting 42.4% from the field and 34.1% from beyond the arc this season. She's also broken several records, including scoring the most points in a campaign by a rookie in Fever franchise history.

Reese has set multiple records, too, most recently breaking the WNBA single-season mark for total rebounds. She's averaging 13.3 points and 13.1 rebounds per game this year.
