Angel Reese takes exception to Caitlin Clark flagrant foul, receives technical

Officials went to the monitor and decided to hand out more than just a common foul on Clark. An additional flagrant was added to her name, while Reese received a technical foul. However, that was offset by Aliyah Boston, who got one upon review as well.

Clark was later asked about the moment in an in-game interview with ESPN’s Holly Rowe. She says there was nothing more to the play than just a hard foul, not wanting to give Reese two points at the rim, and send her to the free throw line instead.

“It’s just a good take foul,” Clark said as the game entered the fourth quarter. “Either Angel gets a wide open two points or we send them to the free throw line. Nothing malicious about it. It’s just a good take foul, every basketball player knows that.”

Mother of Angel Reese takes shot at Caitlin Clark

Angel Reese‘s mom took a shot at Caitlin Clark and Iowa Hawkeyes fans ahead of an Indiana Fever preseason game. Reese’s mother, Angel Webb Reese, went to X/Twitter to attack Clark and Iowa fans for the possibility of having a sold-out crowd at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. This happened after Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky played in a WNBA preseason game at LSU that had very few fans.

“Aww that certain fan base looking in the stands celebrating “attendance” while others are looking up in the rafters celebrating championship banners. We ain’t the same,” Angel’s mom wrote. “Different year same haters. Have a great day.”
