Angel Reese Sent Strong Message to Sheryl Swoopes Amid Caitlin Clark Controversy.
Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese recently spoke about WNBA legend Sheryl Swoopes while talking about a few topics on her “Unapologetically Angel” podcast.
Reese shared major respect for the former WNBA champion. She believes Swoopes should be receiving flowers for what she’s been able to accomplish, and Reese wanted to make sure that she gave her that credit.
Swoopes has been a hot name in the WNBA landscape as of late since many fans have sent her hateful messages about her coverage of Caitlin Clark on her “Queens of the Court” podcast.
The WNBA icon has been quiet in giving the Fever rookie credit for Indiana’s success this season, but she recently said that she’s a fan of Clark, and they’ve actually shared a conversation before.
Given WNBA fan’s comments toward Swoopes, Reese wanted to make sure that the league legend receives praise for what she’s done.
“I’m really giving her her flowers because she’s got her flowers,” Reese said. “I think she needs to be reminded that she’s that girl. You that girl, you that woman, you’ve been that, you still that. You forever gonna be that. I know so much going on in social media with everything going on when people have attacked her.”
Despite the backlash, Swoopes is a well-respected figure in the WNBA community.
Following her praise for Swoopes, Reese even mentioned that she texted the league icon. She wanted to remind Swoopes that she’s a legend and doesn’t have to clap back at WNBA fans.
“I texted her yesterday and said ‘You know you that,” Reese added. “You know you a legend, your resume speaks for itself. You ain’t got to speak on nothing. I done see her get out of character on social media… She’s a legend and somebody that I’ve always looked up to… She’s ten toes behind what’s right.”
