Ex-NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III claimed he spoke to someone in Angel Reese's "inner circle" who told him she "hates" Caitlin Clark.

Angel Reese was named the cover athlete for the NBA 2K26 WNBA Edition. To make the feat more special, Reese debuted her signature shoe on the cover.

Reese clapped back at the former NFL star after he stated that the WNBA forward has no love for Caitlin Clark.

Recently, Griffin's WNBA analysis has resulted in pushback. His response to Caitlin Clark's foul on Reese in May stemmed a feud with ESPN analyst Ryan Clark, and his back-and-forth with Reese's family comes less than two months later.

WNBA All-Star Game captains Caitlin Clark and Napheesa Collier built their rosters, with both prioritizing teammates and agreeing to swap coaches.

Angel Reese called out the WNBA referees for poor officiating and said she doesn't care if she gets fined for the comments after the Chicago Sky's loss on Sunday, July 6.

Reese took her rebound total to 244 after she hauled in 11 boards during Wednesday's 87-76 win over the Dallas Wings. She is the league's runaway leader in total rebounds for the second year running -- but even her 167 defensive rebounds are five higher than the next closest player, Azura Stevens, has collected overall.

Reese took to her X account Thursday with two somewhat cryptic messages calling out unnamed people who the second-year WNBA star accused of "lying for clout," specifically on the social media app formerly known as Twitter.
