Check out Jason Whitlock of Blaze TV’s Fearless calling out Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese recently for not being able to trust the media and how they “twist her words,” as Whitlock criticized Reese for previously stating that she “likes to be the villain,” but giving in and playing the victim when the media doesn’t pamper her like they did when she was at LSU.
Jason Whitlock: “People on social media are ‘praying’ for Angel Reese’s mental health because she’s cracking under the pressure.
She got into an argument with a Chicago Sun Times reporter, giving him a series of short answers, at one point telling him that she ‘CAN’T TRUST ANY OF YOU BECAUSE YOU’RE GOING TO TWIST MY WORDS. ‘
So she’s staying away from the media and calling herself a victim, and people are on social media like ‘WE PRAY FOR YOU ANGEL! WE JUST HOPE YOU SURVIVE SPIRITUALLY!’…
Angel Reese wore Joker shoes and at one point said she “accepted being a villain”… My problem with Angel Reese is she needs to be honest.
She doesn’t want to be a villain, she should stop trying to be a villain, and she needs to get away from Caitlin Clark and just play basketball and leave Caitlin Clark alone. Her mental health will improve.
Angel Reese when she was at LSU and when she was at Maryland, the media covered her basketball career, not because they looked like her because they are champions of women’s sports.
They will cover Angel Reese and the game in a certain way, which is they will always try to sell the women’s game, sell the women’s players, and paint everything in the best light.
She’s used to being flattered, but now Caitlin Clark has other people – like Jason Whitlock, like Dave Portnoy – and other people reporting and talking about sports. We’re not sitting there like, ‘HEY, HOW CAN WE BUILD WOMEN’S BASKETBALL AND MAKE EVERY FEMALE PLAYER LOOK LIKE MOTHER TERESA AND THE BEST THING THAT’S EVER HAPPENED?!’… So she’s stepped into reality
Like a hot girl, she rarely gets to tell the truth. Then all of a sudden she meets a guy who’s like, ‘No, I’m going to tell you the truth,’ and she falls apart. ‘WOW, I’VE NEVER BEEN TREATED THIS WAY! ARE PEOPLE ACTUALLY HOLDING ME ACCOUNTABLE FOR WHAT I SAY AND DO??’…
If you want to sit there and say you’re the reason this audience is here, there’s people like me and others who say ‘well, I’m not sure because if it wasn’t for Caitlin Clark, no one would know or care about you, Angel Reese’…
Angel Reese is probably the most overrated player in all of sports and now people are putting clips together to help me make my point. She has no skills.
She was a great college player because she was a little taller and a little stronger than most of the players she faced. Now she’s in the WNBA facing equal competition and she’s being exposed as really, really unskilled.
That’s why she hates Cailtin Clark because Caitlin Clark is really, really good and Angel Reese is not. She’s a power player, that’s all. She’s not a good basketball player, people are starting to point that out, and she’s not going to like it.”

Reese ranks second in the league in rebounding but has shot just 38.9 percent from the field this season, the lowest of any forward or center in the league, and has just two blocks in 14 games.
Here’s Whitlock’s comments earlier this week about Reese being ‘one of the most unskilled players in the WNBA.’
“Angel Reese is probably the most overrated athlete in all of sports. She has no skill like any player in the WNBA. She’s awkward – and no one talks about this – look at the way she runs. Her lower body doesn’t seem to be related to her upper body. She’s incredibly unathletic.
She has no skill, after the game. I’m sure Candace Parker looked at her and laughed and thought ‘THAT THEY THINK THIS WOMAN IS GOING TO BE ME??’ This woman is a rebounder and that’s it. She has no other skills, and that’s why she hates Caitlin Clark so much. If Charles Barkley or someone else had made that point, the world would have melted.
Anyone could watch her in that position and see her throw the ball up and it would have been knocked out a lot of times.”
