Caitlin Clark Says She and Angel Reese ‘Aren’t Best Friends’

glamour.com:

has a thing or two to clear up about her so-called rivalry with Angel Reese. The short version? It's not that deep. The longer version, as Clark explained , is that it feels like a narrative that was ginned up by outside sources.

The two WNBA superstars may not be cohosting girls’ trips or anything, but that doesn’t mean there’s bad blood.“We’re not best friends, by any means, but we’re very respectful of one another,” Clark told Time. “Yes, we have had tremendous battles.

But when have I ever guarded her? And when has she guarded me?” Clark also addressed the supposedly taunting gesture Reese made to her during a game, which was cited as evidence of their beef.“I didn’t think it was taunting.

It really didn’t bother me,” Clark said. “It’s just like, ‘Why don’t you talk about them winning? Or the incredible run that we went on that nobody would have thought we would have ever gone on?’ The only thing people cared about was this controversy that was really fabricated and made up, and then that has continued to be the case ever since.”It’s not the first time Caitlin Clark has gone out of her way to deny the notion that she and Reese have some kind of bitter enemies situation going on.
