Jason Whitlock accuses Angel Reese of ‘destroying’ herself by trying to compete with Caitlin Clark

Controversial conservative pundit Jason Whitlock has slammed Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese once again.

This time, Whitlock indicated his belief that Reese’s role in the race for Rookie of the Year is hurting her brand.

Reese is one of the front runners – along with Clark – for the honor awarded to the WNBA’s top newcomer, but has hit a bit of a shooting slump in recent games.

That seemed to rectify itself with an 8-for-16 shooting line against the Phoenix Mercury last Sunday, but Whitlock isn’t satisfied.

Angel Reese is paying the cost at this moment for attaching her brand to Caitlin Clark’s brand,’ Whitlock said in a lengthy assessment of Reese’s career so far.

If Angel Reese were disconnected from Caitlin Clark and we just evaluated Angel Reese’s performance without comparing it to Caitlin Clark, and without having this ridiculous Rookie of the Year conversation, we’d all be sitting here like “Man, what a great rebounder, energy [player], and defensive player Angel Reese is! If someone could help her figure out how to perform offensively, man she’s going to be a real impact player in the WNBA!”
