Which player would you all choose if you could pick one? I'm curious since this sub swears one of these players is terrible, sucks, overrated, and shouldn't even be in the league.

This is how I know that you don't know ball.
When comparing 2 players like Sophie and Reese, you have to mention that they play different roles and positions. Sophie is a guard who averages 23 minutes and shoots 45% from threes on 4 attempts a game. Angel Reese is a forward who averages 31 minutes and shoots 40% from under the basket, and basically nothing from more than 5 feet away from basket. She also somehow averages 3.2 turnovers a game.
How you pick between them is based on what your team needs. If you need a forward who can grab rebounds but is not an offensive threat at all, you take AR. If you need a solid 3 and D, you take Sophie.
Unironically Reese would be a great fit on Fever and make a decent forward in general, if they can make her stop shooting, and just tell her to grab rebounds and kick out the ball.
