Angel Reese Calls Out ESPN Over WNBA Player Rankings
In a surprising and candid move, Chicago Sky standout Angel Reese has publicly criticized ESPN for its recent ranking of the top 25 WNBA players, where she was placed below Caitlin Clark. Reese’s comments have sparked a firestorm of controversy, as she supports a theory proposed by sports analyst Carter suggesting that the rankings may have been influenced by Clark’s substantial fan base.
Reese, who has made a significant impact on the court and is considered one of the most promising talents in women’s basketball, voiced her disappointment and concern over the rankings. Despite her remarkable achievements and standout performances, the ranking placed Clark ahead of her, a decision Reese and her supporters believe may be more reflective of Clark’s media influence rather than her own merits and accomplishments.
Reese, known for her powerful performances on the court, expressed her frustration in a recent statement on her Tiktok: “The hate is loud”.
“But remember I’m a DAWG. Respect me. I’m rocking with my girls day in & day out”, Reese added.
Chennedy Carter is making waves after her recent request for a re-evaluation of her ranking on ESPN’s list of the WNBA’s top 25 players was overlooked.
Frustrated by being placed at the bottom of the list, Carter has publicly voiced her dissatisfaction, alleging that the rankings were skewed by Caitlin Clark (CC) and her supporters. According to Carter, this manipulation affected her position unfairly and overshadowed her true potential.
Despite her appeals for a review, ESPN has not responded, and the controversy has intensified. The WNBA has backed Carter’s claim, suggesting that Clark’s influence may have played a role in how the rankings were determined. This has led to heated discussions within the league and among fans about fairness and bias in player evaluations.
Her request for a reassessment has gone unanswered, prompting her to question the delay. “I’m still waiting for an answer. Why would you take that long to respond to an important issue?” Carter asked on her Tiktok clip, expressing her discontent with the lack of response from the network.
Chennedy Carter Blasts ESPN Over List That Ranks Her Below Caitlin Clark
ESPN recently released its rankings of the top 25 players in the WNBA, and Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Carter was less than thrilled with her spot on the list.
Among the top 25 players, Carter was ranked 24th — five spots below her rookie teammate Angel Reese, who was 19th, and nine spots below Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark, who was 15th.
“How I average less minutes and my stats top in the league??? but I am at the BOTTOM this isn’t adding up, the hate be so obvious,” she wrote.
Carter’s frustrations seem valid.
A’ja Wilson, Dearica Hamby and Nneka Ogwumike are the only players in the top 12 in scoring with a higher scoring efficiency than Carter, who also has the sixth-best field-goal percentage of any player in ESPN’s top 25.
Despite averaging the fewest minutes (25.1) of any player in the top 35 in scoring, she ranks 13th in the league with 17.2 points per game. Carter is also sixth in made field goals per game (7.3), 10th in field-goal percentage (51.8) and tied for 18th in steals per game (1.3).
Not to mention Carter leads the Sky in scoring and is second on the team in field-goal percentage, scoring efficiency and shooting efficiency.
