Chicago Sky star Angel Reese was recently in Las Vegas, Nevada, for ComplexCon. Following a hectic WNBA rookie season, the Sky forward spoke on her basketball journey with Speedy Morman.

While the two discussed Reese’s journey to the WNBA, Morman asked the Sky star about her relationship with Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark.

Clark and Reese battled for the 2024 Rookie of the Year award, with the Fever guard ultimately taking home the trophy.

While fans have pinned the two against each other, Reese emphasized that there are no “hard feelings.”

“I don’t think it’s just her fans, I think it’s fans in general,” Reese said. “People don’t realize at the end of the day, we’re human. You guys watch us. Knowing that, it’s just basketball. I promise you, it’s just basketball. I don’t have any hard feelings towards her. She doesn’t have any hard feelings towards me, but yeah, it gets crazy sometimes.”

She explained that fans may take the “rivalry” too far in some instances but didn’t give much detail in describing any of those circumstances.

Angel Reese was on the Complex and was asked about Caitlin Clark. I will 100% give her props here for how she answered the question about if she gets hate from Caitlin’s fans. Would love to see more WNBA players echo her sentiment. #WNBA #Feverrising

Reese mentioned that she has been playing against Clark since eighth or ninth grade. After competing in AAU basketball, they went head-to-head in college when Clark played for the Iowa Hawkeyes and Reese played for the LSU Tigers.

While many fans debated who was the bigger star in their rookie season, Reese made sure to explain that “it’s just basketball.”

Reese and Clark faced each other four times during their rookie season. Clark and the Fever held a 3-1 season series advantage over the Sky.

The Sky forward finished her rookie campaign averaging 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds per game. She led the WNBA in average rebounds and was the only rookie to average a double-double.
