Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark opened a new chapter in their already-storied rivalry during the first game of the season.
The WNBA pitted the second-year stars against each other to tip off the new season. While the game didn’t live up to the hype, given that it was a blowout win for the Indiana Fever over the Chicago Sky, a feisty exchange between Reese and Clark made up for the lack of competitiveness.
Caitlin picked up a flagrant for a hard foul on Angel that split the opinion, as some fans reckon it was a common foul, while others feel it was over the top. Reese clearly thought it was too much as she hopped up and approached the Fever guard, ready to throw hands.
What Angel Reese Told Caitlin Clark
Internet lip readers have since revealed the four-word message she had for her opponent.
“You crazy as f*ck,” the former LSU star is reported to have told Clark, having previously asked, “What the f*ck is wrong with you?”

Meanwhile, Caitlin Clark has offered to pay a $200 fine handed to Fever teammate Aliyah Boston, who was assessed a technical while trying to get between her and Reese.
“I got it for you, don’t worry. It’s real hefty,” she joked.
The WNBA has since opened up an investigation into allegations of racist abuse toward Angel Reese at Indianapolis’ Gainbridge Fieldhouse during the game.
