tied the record for the most points EVER by a rookie in a single month (tied Elena Delle Donne with 275 pts). She is REALLY finishing the season strong!

But more generally, great rookies usually get drafted by terrible teams because of the way the draft is set up. Dallas was without Diggins and lost Cambage on a team that finished with the 5th worst record last season. The Lynx lost Maya Moore, but still had Sylvia Fowles and Odyssey Sims, who were both All Stars this season. Arike has had little help this season, and so defenses could focus on her.
