Reese had five fouls in Sunday’s loss to the Indiana Fever.

In a thrilling matchup on Sunday, the Chicago Sky fell to the Indiana Fever, 91-83.

While the game featured impressive performances from both teams, the spotlight was on Angel Reese and her flagrant foul against Caitlin Clark.

Angel Reese: Some people have a special whistle

Reese, who notched a double-double with 11 points and 13 rebounds, committed the foul during the third quarter as Clark drove to the rim.

Attempting to block Clark’s layup, Reese’s arm made contact with Clark’s head, causing Clark to fall to the floor.

The play was reviewed and upgraded to a Flagrant 1 foul due to the “unnecessary” contact as defined by the WNBA rulebook.

“It was a basketball play,”Reese explained postgame.

“I can’t control the refs. They affected the game obviously a lot today. I’m always going for the ball. Y’all are going to play that clip 20 times before Monday.”

Reese further expressed her frustration with the officiating.

“Going back and looking at the film, I’ve seen a lot of calls that weren’t made. I guess some people have a special whistle,” she remarked.

Despite the officiating woes, Reese acknowledged the need for her team to focus on improvement.

“I think we just have to get back to the drawing board and figure things out. I think we were playing really hard [on the inside]. I’m proud of Kamilla [Cardoso] going out and getting a double-double.”

Kamilla Cardoso, like Reese, also recorded a double-double, finishing with 10 points and 10 rebounds.

Clark on Angel Reese: We’re competitors

The Sky’s combined efforts weren’t enough to secure a win against a formidable Fever team led by Clark.

Clark, who scored 23 points on 7-of-11 shooting and added nine assists and eight rebounds, once again showcased her talent.

The rivalry between Reese and Clark, which dates back to their college days, added an extra layer of intensity to the game.

Clark acknowledged the competitive spirit between them, saying, “That’s what makes it fun. We’re competitors. That’s the way the game should be. It’s going to get a little feisty, it’s going to get physical, but at the end of the day both teams are just trying to win.”

Fans can look forward to another clash between these two teams next Sunday at Wintrust Arena in Chicago.

As Reese and the Sky aim to turn their season around, the ongoing rivalry with Clark and the Fever promises to keep the excitement high.

Caitlin Clark Makes One Request To Former Iowa Teammate After Big Announcement.

Caitlin Clark established herself as a standout player for the Iowa Hawkeyes before transitioning to the WNBA. Throughout her four seasons with Iowa, Clark compiled an impressive college career that stands out as one of the best in women’s basketball history.

She achieved milestones such as winning two National Player of the Year awards, earning three first-team All-American honors, and setting a new record for the most points scored in college basketball, regardless of gender.

Clark failed to achieve the one accolade in college: winning a National Championship. Clark and other stars such as Kate Martin and Gabbie Marshall led Iowa to two title appearances but fell just short in both.

Since Caitlin Clark’s arrival at the Indiana Fever, her presence has sparked a renewed interest in the WNBA. Despite a challenging start to the 2024 season, her influence has helped the team turn the tide, making them one of the most promising teams in the league.

On Thursday, Clark’s former Hawkeyes teammate, Jada Gyamfi, made a big announcement. Gyamfi revealed that she will be starting her podcast, Fresh Tawk. The podcast will premiere on July 2 and release a new episode every Tuesday.

Clark noticed Gyamfi’s announcement and made one simple request to her former Iowa teammate in the comment section.

“Get me on the show,” Clark said.

Clark also made note of the cereal box decoration in the background of Gyamfi’s post. The box contained an image of Clark during her time with the Hawkeyes.

“Love the cereal in the back,” Clark commented.

Gyamfi, who shared two seasons with Clark at Iowa, is a testament to the power of perseverance. Despite not getting much time on the court, she made her presence felt in 20 games last year, averaging 1.4 points and 0.6 rebounds in 4.0 minutes per game. With the departure of many Iowa starters, her potential for more playing time this upcoming season is a beacon of hope.

Watch out for upcoming episodes of ‘Fresh Tawk’ because Clark may be featured in one of them.
