Angel Reese has recounted a harsh Caitlin Clark-induced insult she received from a fan after not signing an autograph, where the fan claimed, “That white girl is better than you”.
Both Reese and Clark had impressive rookie seasons in the WNBA, playing for the Chicago Sky and Indiana Fever, respectively.
Despite their individual successes, Clark helped Indiana secure its first playoff berth since 2016 and won the Rookie of the Year award, as reported by Daily Mail.
On her podcast, “Unapologetically Angel,” Reese shared her experience while discussing fan encounters with guest GloRilla and expressed a desire to be teammates with Clark in the future.
“Sometimes I be busy, like I can’t sign everything,” she told the American rapper. “One man was like, ‘That’s why you not Rookie of the Year. And that white girl is better than you.”‘
“I’m like ok, you wanted me to sign your thing and now you don’t like me no more?”
Reese and Clark shared an iconic college rivalry, amplified by Reese’s use of wrestler John Cena’s “You Can’t See Me” hand gesture towards Clark during the 2023 national championship final. This gesture was a response to Clark’s earlier use of the same gesture in the tournament. Reese’s Tigers upset Clark’s Hawkeyes in one of the highest-rated games in the sport’s history. Their rematch on April 4 in the Elite 8 surpassed that viewership record.
“My life literally just changed from that game,” the Chicago forward told The Wall Street Journal Magazine this week in a piece about herself and WNBA MVP A’Ja Wilson.
Despite their fierce rivalry, Reese and Clark joined forces on the court during this year’s WNBA All-Star Game. Clark assisted Reese, and their teamwork helped the WNBA All-Star roster defeat Team USA, causing a social media frenzy.
Following their Rookie of the Year competition, Reese expressed her desire to be teammates with Clark in the future.
“Me and Caitlin have been playing against each other since we were kids,” she added in the WSJ article. “It’s just a full circle moment of how women are viewed when it comes to trash-talking and it’s okay, in men’s sport. So we’re going to normalize that in women’s sports as well. It’s just super competitive
“I think we’re two great competitors. We brought a lot of fans to this league, and I thought, we’re going to continue to do that and one day, hopefully we can be teammates.”
