Tom Brady Makes His Opinion of Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese Extremely Clear

Former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is widely regarded as one of the greatest players in NFL history, having won three MVP awards and a record seven Super Bowls.

Brady won six Super Bowls during his time with Bill Belichick and the Patriots, creating arguably the greatest dynasty the NFL has ever seen. After his New England tenure, Brady made his way to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, winning his final ring.

But Brady has his eyes on other sports as well, including a young WNBA rivalry between Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clar and Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese.

On Wednesday, Brady joined Bleacher Report for a phone interview while riding in the front seat of his car. Naturally, he was asked to name his Mount Rushmore of GOATs (greatest of all time).

Although he didn’t fully grasp the question, naming 11 players instead of four, Brady didn’t hesitate to include Clark and Reese.

“Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese, this little thing they got going, I love that," Brady said.

Among the nine other GOATs Brady listed are Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan (NBA), Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani (MLB), professional golfer Tiger Woods and Olympic medalist Michael Phelps.

Clark and Reese have had quite the history since 2023, building one of the biggest rivalries in women's basketball. And it started in the 2023 National Championship, when Reese's LSU Tigers defeated Clark's Iowa Hawkeyes. Clark got her revenge in the Elite Eight the following year.

The two have faced off five times early in their WNBA careers, with Clark holding a 4-1 edge. In their first meeting of 2025, the Fever won 93-58 in a game that featured an altercation between Clark and Reese, resulting in a flagrant foul and two technicals.

The Fever and Sky will meet for the second time this season on Saturday. However, Clark will remain sidelined after suffering a quad strain over a week ago.
