After the Chicago Sky’s 90-81 victory over the New York Liberty, Angel Reese took to social media to express her satisfaction.
Amid unwarranted criticism directed towards the Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark from various players, coaches, and pundits in the sports media, Reese joined in with the critics, inadvertently drawing attention back to Clark.
Reflecting on the win, 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, expressed her views on the matter through X.
I just don't get it.

There was so much hoopla about supporting and watching the WNBA. Then Caitlin Clark emerges and brings millions of eyes to women's basketball. Then the media and WNBA self implodes and deems Clark problematic because of her skin color and sexuality??🤦🏼♀️ https://t.co/J73qvISY4C
