“We need her to take at least 15 shots a game, she needs to take the shots that are there and we need to do a better job of freeing her up on the screens.“. Clark is first in the WNBA among rookies in shots per game but is below the threshold indicated by coach Sides, with less than 13 attempts per game and 40.5% to the shot.
