Angel Reese ERUPTS After Caitlin Clark Games Get Upgraded to Bigger Venue!

Angel Reese Reacts as Caitlin Clark’s Games Get Bigger Venues—The Truth Behind Their Rivalry

For months, the narrative surrounding Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark has been one of heated rivalry, tension, and bad blood. But according to WNBA legend Cheryl Miller, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

During an appearance on Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson’s All The Smoke podcast, Miller set the record straight, shutting down the false narratives and highlighting the real relationship between Reese and Clark.

Do Reese and Clark Actually Hate Each Other?

🔥 The short answer: No.

While Reese and Clark are undoubtedly rivals, Miller confirmed that they do not hate each other—a storyline that has been pushed by the media for far too long.

💬 “Angel and Caitlin got along so well,” Miller revealed. “Watching them practice together, I saw how much respect they had for each other.”

As a coach in their first WNBA All-Star game, Miller had first-hand experience watching them interact—not as bitter enemies, but as competitors who push each other to be better.

Cheryl Miller on Caitlin Clark: “I Felt for Her”

Miller also opened up about relating to Caitlin Clark, particularly regarding the intense scrutiny and hate she has received.

💬 “I know what it’s like to be hated,” Miller admitted. “I know what it’s like to be a Black woman and hated because of my color. I can’t imagine what Caitlin is going through.”

She went on to explain that Clark’s confidence has sometimes rubbed people the wrong way, but at the end of the day, her impact on the WNBA is undeniable.

The Media’s Role in Fueling the Narrative

One of the biggest misconceptions that Miller called out was the idea that Clark is the “white savior” of the WNBA.

🚨 Yes, Clark has boosted TV ratings and revenue for the league.
🚨 Yes, she is a huge draw for fans.
🚨 But she isn’t the sole reason the WNBA is thriving.

Miller made it clear:

💬 “The Black women in this league BUILT it. Caitlin is helping to grow it.”

The problem isn’t Clark—it’s the media pushing the idea that the league needed saving in the first place.

Angel Reese’s Reaction to Caitlin Clark’s Bigger Venues

When news broke that Clark’s games were being moved to larger venues to accommodate the huge demand, many wondered how Reese would react.

While she hasn’t directly commented, Reese has never shied away from calling out double standards in the WNBA, particularly in how certain players are promoted over others.

🔥 Could this be the latest example of those disparities?

Or is it simply Clark’s star power attracting bigger crowds, something that benefits the entire WNBA?

The Bottom Line: Respect Over Rivalry

At the end of the day, Clark and Reese don’t need to be enemies—they are two of the biggest names pushing the WNBA forward.

Both can be superstars.
Both can bring in fans.
Both can grow the league together.
