The LSU star had plenty of battles with Caitlin Clark, Kamilla Cardoso and more.
Professional athletes are driven by passion and adrenaline. It’s no surprise that during games, things can get heated with opponents.
Angel Reese is no stranger to that. In fact, she developed a bit of a negative reputation for celebrating in Caitlin Clark‘s face during LSU‘s national championship victory. Her battles in the paint against South Carolina‘s Kamilla Cardoso always drew eyes as well.

Most of Reese’s high-profile rivals were in attendance for the draft, so she got plenty of time to spend with them and get to know them a little better.
Reese makes it clear that all of the bad blood that we may see on broadcasts during games stays on the court. It’s the nature of being a competitive professional athlete.
Reese and so many other players just want to win, and will do whatever it takes to get there. But that shouldn’t affect how they feel about each other off the court.
