Angel Reese has opened up on her rivalry with Caitlin Clark and her role as the villain who ‘gets the hate’.
Reese and Clark have risen to become two of the biggest stars in women’s sports, shining in college basketball before catapulting the WNBA to new heights.
Chicago Sky forward Reese and Indiana Fever guard Clark have been playing against one another since they were in high school.
But their rivalry moved into the mainstream during the NCAA championship game in 2023, when Reese was accused of taunting Clark as she led LSU to victory over Iowa.
But the Sky star insists she has nothing against her Fever counterpart, who won the race to be named WNBA rookie of the year in 2024.
‘I’ve been playing against Caitlin since we were probably in eighth or ninth grade. We were both really competitive,’ Reese told ComplexCon.
