However, RGIII spent the balance of his time shading Reese for allegedly exemplifying jealousy and animus towards Clark.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Angel Reese claps back at RGIII<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">The timing of RGIII\u2019s attack on Reese is what irks her fans. Reese had just earned Eastern Conference Player of the Week on Tuesday after averaging 19.7 points, 17.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 2.0 steals as the dynamic forward for the Chicago Sky, in addition to the aforementioned milestones. She crashed out on social media in response to RGIII\u2019s persistence in suggesting that she possesses animus against Clark.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">\u201cLying on this app when everybody knows the first and last name of everybody in my circle for clout is nastyyyy work,\u201d Reese barked at RGIII on her X account.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">RGIII claims Angel Reese hates Caitlin Clark<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">RGIII started off very briefly defending Reese against those who superimposed a picture of a monkey on the cover of the NBA 2K26 video game. But he quickly transitioned into asserting that there\u2019s \u201cclear basketball evidence that Angel Reese hates Caitlin Clark.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Griffin, who was ousted from ESPN, also claimed that \u201cpeople in Angel\u2019s inner circle called me and told me I was right\u201d about what he believes is Reese\u2019s disdain for Clark.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Angel Reese\u2019s mother also blasts RGIII<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Reese\u2019s mother, Angel Webb, also flamed the former footballer, telling RGIII to \u201cstop with the cap,\u201d meaning that he needs to desist with the lies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">\u201cMy daughter\u2019s \u2018circle\u2019 is so small &amp; tight so I\u2019d be interested to know who called you \u2026 Whomever you say \u2018called\u2019 you is not in her circle to speak on her feelings towards a media\/fandom made up beef. Just stay on that side bc the doors are closed over here,\u201d she said, cooking RGIII.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Angel Reese fans are disgusted with RGIII<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Fans of Reese blasted RGIII for using the racist photo of Reese to dig up old narratives by accusing Reese of holding a grudge against Clark.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">\u201cYou are an even bigger loser than I thought,\u201d one person said on X. \u201cIf you wanted to denounce the pic, just do that. Instead you get on here with all that extra BS. You on here contributing to the online hate of this 23-year-old woman but on Twitter trying to play victim. Get some help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">A second user charred RGIII. \u201cYou are a disgusting liar and desperate for attention. No one in Angel\u2019s family called you. You have no morals or integrity. May hate and bitterness be your downfall forever.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">A third fan ripped RGIII for \u201cclout chasing and hating\u201d on Reese, adding that such behavior would be his \u201cdownfall.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Angel Reese celebrates her NBA 2K cover<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Meanwhile, the Bayou Barbie celebrated two special milestones in her career: becoming an NBA 2K cover athlete and the debut of her signature Reebok sneaker, the AR1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Reese opened up about how special it was for her to see herself on the cover of a popular video game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">\u201cI\u2019m so blessed to be honored,\u201d the Chicago Sky star said, according to The Blast. \u201cI was just super excited\u2026just trying to be the first of many and have many young kids and young women look up to me and know that they can do the same things I\u2019m doing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Reese explained why her all-white, shimmery sneaker is dubbed the \u201cDiamond Dust\u201d colorway.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">\u201cThe most brilliant diamonds take pressure, polish, and time,\u201d she wrote online. \u201cReebok is back\u2014and the diamonds are shining brighter than ever.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Record-breaking WNBA star Angel Reese has grown tired of Robert Griffin III accusing her of hating on generational&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2992,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[73],"tags":[99,434],"class_list":["post-2991","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-wnba","tag-sports","tag-wnba"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2991","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2991"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2991\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2992"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2991"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2991"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2991"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
