However, the two WNBA stars recently shared the same locker room while playing together for Team USA. Because of their history from the NCAA, caitlin Clark and Angel Reese have long been viewed as direct rivals, largely.
After Team USA won the FIBA Women’s World Cup, Fox News reporter Jackson Thompson had a straightforward question for Clark during the postgame interview about her friendship with Reese. The Fox News reporter appeared on OutKick with Dan Dakich, where he discussed the question he asked following the FIBA World Cup final. The Fox News reporter explained that his intention was actually the opposite of what Clark may have believed.
Thompson said he was unable to understand exactly why his question appeared to upset Clark. “She has a lot of obligations and responsibility as a leader of the sport,” the reporter said. He said he was “genuinely curious” after watching Clark and Reese throughout the FIBA World Cup, where he felt the two appeared to have developed a friendship. Thompson also said he believes many people still do not view the two WNBA stars as friends, which was why he felt the relationship was worth clarifying.
