As the WNBA has surged in popularity in the early weeks of the 2024 season, Angel Reese staked her claim to helping the game's growth.
Caitlin Clark's arrival in the WNBA has brought a new swarm of attention to the league, but one of her fellow rookies believes she's also played a hand in its growing popularity. On Monday, Angel Reese touted her own role in helping grow women's basketball, as she recalled playing the heel to Clark in the 2023 women's national championship game.
Iowa's two games in the Final Four wound up breaking that viewership mark. Another chapter was entered into the Clark-Reese rivalry on Saturday, their first meeting since they entered the WNBA this spring. Late in the third quarter of the Indiana Fever's win over the Chicago Sky, Clark received a shoulder shot from Sky guard Chennedy Carter, knocking her to the floor. As the officials ruled the play an away-from-the-ball foul, Reese was seen on the Sky's bench standing and clapping.
