Chicago Sky star Angel Reese is not afraid to respond to the many haters who do not like her, but one comment she made probably should’ve stayed with her.
Reese has always been known for her fiery competitiveness on and off the court.
Drafted seventh overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft, the rookie made an immediate impact as she set rookie records and earned a spot in the All-Star Game. Despite that, the haters continued to go against her all year.
Angel Reese, who wrapped up her rookie season in September, decided she had finally had enough and responded to one of them who pointed out her offensive struggles in the paint. “U realize u can’t make a lay up on the first try most times, right,” the person wrote on X on Tuesday night.
Reese saw it and fired back: “Do you realize I got drafted 7th in my class while ‘missing layups’ as a ROOKIE shooting 39% on the year & was STILL a all star and that was the worst you’ll ever see me??? Or you just laid up with your dog at home hating Adam?”
On the surface, that appeared as if Reese just buried that fan, but her comments backfired on her terribly.
“I do! You got drafted high for a reason but u still brick tons of layups lol. Your fg % is inflated because u put up a ton of put backs, but I hope to see you progress as a player & succeed. Also coming at my dog is weird, he doesn’t play basketball,” the fan fired back at Angel Reese.
“Shooting 39% is not a brag. Its pretty bad for your position,” one fan stated.
“Missing layups and shooting 39%, while still being an “a all star” isn’t the flex you think it is,” another person quipped.
“39% on layups cause that’s all ya did 💀,” one commenter stated.
“willingly admitting you shot 39% almost all in the paint is rough buddy you should delete this,” as another fan mocked Reese.
“A all star” no wonder yo a** had a 1.5 gpa 💀
Angel Reese Had A Solid Rookie Year That Was Cut Short
On Tuesday night, Angel Reese revisited a post from December 2023, when fans on social media were asked whether she was a first-round pick.
The majority of people stated, “No.”
Despite how people feel about Reese, her solid season and numbers proved how good she was and how much better she can be.
The Chicago Sky rookie was the WNBA leader this season in total rebounds per game and offensive rebounds per game before she was slated to miss the rest of the season because of a wrist injury.
Her final game of the year saw her finish with 24 points and 12 rebounds.
She ended her year averaging 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds per game this season.
VIDEO: Some Dude Just Dropped The Cold Hard Truth On Why All Of These NFL Prospects Are “Dating White Women”
Unless this is your first day in America, then you know race relations in this country dominate just everything, and that includes NBA and NFL drafts
During the most recent NFL Draft in Detroit, social media was buzzing as athletes showed up to the red carpet event with their girlfriends and family. Many of the incoming NFL rookies were African-American and were spotted with white women, which has become the usual theme for years.
The same thing happens with the NBA Draft.
This year, the discourse on the NFL Draft and NBA Draft has gotten even louder as African-American women openly pondered why so many of the players never have a partner that is the same race as them.
One guy on TikTok decided to answer that question by revealing that the vast majority of his division-1 friends in college or headed to the league are dating or married to white women and explained why.
He stated that some of them had told him that their white girlfriend looked up to Taylor Swift while their girlfriend looked up to Megan The Stallion. He then states the guy asks how many white women he has seen doing the Megan Thee Stallion challenge as opposed to Black women.
He then dove into another story of a friend who relayed that his Black girlfriend started to request money from him as soon as she found out about his NIL money. She wanted her hair and nails done. He then added that the Black women would be upset if they went to places like Chipotle, and she demanded steak houses.
