The 2025 WNBA season tipped off with a bang — well, more like a beatdown. The Indiana Fever ran the Chicago Sky straight outta the gym, 93–58, and Caitlin Clark wasted zero time making her presence felt. Midway through the third, things got chippy when Clark fouled Angel Reese on a putback attempt. After a quick review, the refs decided the contact was a little too much and bumped it up to a Flagrant 1.
Both Clark and Reese picked up techs, and for a second, it looked like things might boil over. Reese was fired up, and there was a brief, tense exchange — the kind that makes you sit up and grab the popcorn. But once the dust settled, both players brushed it off like pros. Clark called it just a regular basketball play, nothing more, and Reese said pretty much the same — just two competitors going at it. No drama.
But things are far from over. Enter the NFL legend, Robert Griffin III, who just reacted to the spat between these two WNBA stars. And get this, Griffith wasted no time noting that Reese hated Clark. Yeah, you read that right. “After watching Caitlin Clark’s flagrant foul on Angel Reese and the aftermath, there is no way Angel Reese can continue the lie that she doesn’t dislike Caitlin Clark,” Griffin said. “I know what hatred looks like. Angel Reese HATES Caitlin Clark. Not some basketball rivalry hate either. Hate.”
