Angel Reese celebrated on social media following the Chicago Sky’s 90-81 win over the New York Liberty.
After a wave of unsolicited criticism of Caitlin Clark from players, coaches, and pundits, Reese joined in to take a jab at her college rival. Despite intending not to focus on Clark, her comments inadvertently did just that.
Reese posted, “and that’s on getting a WIN in a packed area not just cause of one player on our charter flight. #SKYTOWN.”
Riley Gaines, a leading voice in the fight to save women’s sports, took to X to share her thoughts on the issue.
Incredibly disheartening to see Angel Reese attack Caitlin Clark like this. Just entirely baseless and distasteful. The tweet screams jealousy and insecurity.

Although, Caitlin Clark probably deserved this given she has white, straight, pretty & tall-privilege. Right, @sunny? pic.twitter.com/CHfIDNOCRo
