Angel Reese gives VERY snide answer to Caitlin Clark question before rivals face off in Saturday’s WNBA opener…

Angel Reese offered a very curt response to a Caitlin Clark question on Monday as the Chicago Sky held their media day.

A year ago, as both Reese and Clark were entering the WNBA as rookies, the former LSU star condemned the notion that Clark was the only one driving eyeballs towards the league.

‘I’ll look back in 20 years and be like, the reason why we’re watching women’s basketball is not just because of one person,’ she said. ‘It’s because of me, too. I want ya’ll to realize that.’

And this week, a reporter was quickly shut down by Reese when he attempted to ask her about those remarks, and if they still held up.

After paraphrasing Reese’s remarks from last year, the reporter said: ‘A year later, do you feel like you’re…’ before he was cut off.

‘Next question,’ Reese said.

A Sky employee than echoed that sentiment, saying: ‘Yeah, we’ll move on. Thank you.’

 

Reese and Clark, who both made the WNBA All-Star team at their first opportunities, have been pitted against one another since their LSU and Iowa teams faced off in the 2023 national championship.

In that game, as the clock wound down on a blowout LSU win, Reese infamously taunted Clark as she pointed to her ring finger while standing right in front of the sharpshooter.

Clark later got the better of Reese and her Lady Tigers teammates when Iowa beat them the following year in the Elite Eight, with Clark scoring 41 points.

The pair remained entangled to some degree once they made the jump to the pros, as Reese cheered when her Sky teammate, Chennedy Carter, bodychecked Clark to the floor.

Nonetheless, Reese was previously complimentary of Clark before they teamed up together in the All-Star Game against Team USA.

‘It’s gonna be really cool,’ Reese said. ‘I know so many fans are gonna come out to watch both of us. I know a lot of people are just gonna come to Phoenix, I’m sure it’s already sold out.

‘Being able to be in that environment, we’re gonna be playing together for a while so this is not gonna be the [last] time. I know we’ll be All-Stars again, and hopefully, 2028 we’ll be Olympians together.’

Clark has also gushed over Reese, saying last year that what she ‘has done with her platform has been absolutely incredible.

‘She has an entire fanbase that has supported her and what she did at Maryland and then LSU. Obviously, l’ve played her for a very long time, and she’s been a tremendous player. It’s been fun getting to compete against [her].

The pair’s rivalry will be renewed this weekend when they open their respective WNBA seasons against each other, with the Fever hosting the Sky.
