How does she stack up against last year’s Rookie of the Year, Caitlin Clark? And what does the future look like for Paige and the Wings?Finally, Zena challenges Sabreena to a game of Two Takes and a Fake._________________References:WNBA power rankings: Can the Aces keep climbing in the standings? by Sabreena MerchantAs Indiana Fever await Caitlin Clark’s return, can they hold on for playoff push? by Sabreena Merchant _________________Visit our YouTube page!_________________Get in touch!
