I don’t consider Caitlin Clark being left off the Olympic team, a snub. Now when Candace Parker and Nneka Ogwumike were left off the Olympic teams, THAT was a snub. Nneka was league MVP, led Team USA in scoring a year before the Olympics, and was MVP of the FIBA qualifying tournament. CP had won two gold medals, was a former MVP and a champion. Think Nneka is the only WNBA MVP to not make an Olympic roster.
Angel Reese continues to impress. Here’s a look at the rookie’s current résumé:
Leads all Rookies in Rebounds
Leads all Rookies in Steals
Leads all Rookies in Double-Doubles
Leads all Rookies in Win Shares
Leads all Rookies in PER
Second among all Rookies in Points
Second among all Rookies in Offensive Rating
Second among all Rookies in Defensive Rating
June Stats:

What a homecoming for Angel Reese where she was embraced by her former coach Kim Mulkey and tons of love including her family after playing against the Mystics 💪
