Imma say this. If the wnba ratings don’t triple after this class comes in they might as well fold the league. This is their best shot

I think Angel would be a great Spark. She’s made for LA imo. 🤔

[jsoul]

I think Reese and Clarke could save the WNBA similar to how Magic amd Bird saved the NBA. Their star power is that big.

Loved Monica’s take on this. Powerful, no shade, great positive/truthful analysis. She does a great job 💪🏽

The abuse Reese has received has spread far beyond insults. Last year, fake AI nude photos of Reese were circulated online. Reese didn't say she was the villain she said “I’ll take the villain role. "I’ll take the hit for it, but I know we’re growing women’s basketball" But instead of being upset that was the villain she accepted it because she knew it would grow women's basketball which is why I feel like rather than criticizing her we should appreciate the fact that she accepted that villain just to put women's basketball on the map. Oh and as far the sexulization comments ya'll say she did that to herself but all she was doing is being herself and making money what's wrong with that and it's sad that people hate her so much that they make ai nudes of her. And ya'll are okay with that. Yet nobody points out what caitlin clark did. Caitlin Clark trash talked plenty of times. She waved off one of the players of South Carolina. But when Angel Reese trash talk she's classless she's not acting her age. I hate the fact that y'all are getting mad at her for playing victim it went like this she was asked a question she answered it she got emotional because her teammates were sticking up for her. And when did she make an excuse she literally admitted that she rolled her ankle but she still continued to play and when they asked her about that she specifically explained I'm not going to make an excuse even though she did roll her ankle. But ya'll do whatever you want with this comment and if you comment don't worry I'm not responding.

I thought she should have worked at becoming a 4 at LSU before declaring

[brittanybrown]

I’m happy for her…I’ll be following her to the WNBA…👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[tommytom]

Angel in LA would rock the world.. LA needs a superstar with charisma and fire.

[AJHart-egys]

"Reese takes her sizzling two-foot put-back game to the next level" 🤣

[ScHwifTyFLip]

I don't know about this decision, I like Angel Reese but it is clear to see she still has a lot offensive skill sets to develop and improve on.
I feel she should've at least gave herself a year playing overseas and working on muscle training.

[creationmuse]

People will watch, just to try to see her fail!😮‍💨🫤

[geminiascension]

I don't care what any of you media 'professionals' think - I will follow Angel anywhere she takes her career. I form my own opinion without any media commentary.

[Ka_Dee]

These next 2 to 3 years it about to be some TALENT coming to they league.

[datsapaddlin]

In other words she just took a pay cut

[donathenpowell]

That lay up have to change that underhand shih ain’t gone work

[BossMan-vlcd]

It’s woman’s basketball she’ll be fine 😂

[bencromwell]

[Whatutalknbout]
