JuJU Watkins chasing CC

[Zstatman]

I read where 6'2" USC point guard just scored her 1000th point in just 38 games. It took Caitlin Clark 40 games to do so. It is already being mentioned JuJu just might have the game to reach CC's lofty numbers.

In the WNBA, players can't leave college early to join the pro league so JuJu will play four years.

Two fewer games to get to 1000--good for Watkins--but Clark ended up with 3,951 points, and got more productive every year. Plus, the number of games CC played include 4 straight runs to the B1G Tournament title game, and with two seasons extended to the maximum number of games by back-to-back NCAA title game appearances.

Clark's stats:
Year Points Points per game
Frosh 799 26.6
Soph 863 27.0
Jr 1,055 27.8
Sr 1,234 31.6

With USC now in the Big 18, Iowa fans will get to see how Watkins progresses. There's still a long way to go to get to the top of the list of all-time scorers!
