Angel Reese recently discussed the abuse she’s had to endure amid her WNBA rookie season, thanks to fans of Caitlin Clark.
The first-year stars are locked in a rivalry at the moment, whether they want to be or not. They have both said on multiple occasions that there’s zero animosity between them, yet Reese claims she has been dealing with a lot because Clark’s fans refuse to leave her alone.
The Chicago Sky forward made it clear that the former Iowa star has nothing to do with the racism and abuse she has been facing, but fans have been taking things way too far in showing support for the Indiana Fever guard.
“Caitlin is an amazing player and I’ve always thought she was an amazing player. We’ve been playing each other since high school,” Reese said during the first episode of her new podcast ‘Unapologetically Angel.’
“So I think it’s really just the fans — her fans, the Iowa fans, now the Indiana fans — that are, like, they ride for her and I respect that, respectfully, but sometimes it’s very disrespectful. I think there’s a lot of racism when it comes to it and I don’t believe she stands on any of that.”
Angel Reese Dealing With Death Threats And Fake AI Content
Reese also revealed having experienced death threats, as well as people creating nude AI photos of her and sending them to her family.
“But when it comes to death threats, like, I’m talking about people have come down to my address, following me home, it’s come down to that,” she added. “Multiple occasions, people have made AI pictures of me naked, literally. They have sent it to my family members.
“My family members are, like, uncles are sending it to me, like, ‘Are you naked on Instagram?’ It sucks to see that, and it’s really hard that I have to go through that, and now seeing other players even having to go through that.”
The former college rivals are now fighting for the Rookie of the Year Award. But only one of them has clinched a playoff berth so far, with the Fever locking their spot in for the first time since 2016.
