Chicago Sky star Angel Reese is not afraid to respond to the many haters who do not like her, but one comment she made probably should’ve stayed with her.

 

Reese has always been known for her fiery competitiveness on and off the court.

 

Drafted seventh overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft, the rookie made an immediate impact as she set rookie records and earned a spot in the All-Star Game. Despite that, the haters continued to go against her all year.

Angel Reese, who wrapped up her rookie season in September, decided she had finally had enough and responded to one of them who pointed out her offensive struggles in the paint. “U realize u can’t make a lay up on the first try most times, right,” the person wrote on X on Tuesday night.

Reese saw it and fired back: “Do you realize I got drafted 7th in my class while ‘missing layups’ as a ROOKIE shooting 39% on the year & was STILL a all star and that was the worst you’ll ever see me??? Or you just laid up with your dog at home hating Adam?”

On the surface, that appeared as if Reese just buried that fan, but her comments backfired on her terribly.

 

“I do! You got drafted high for a reason but u still brick tons of layups lol. Your fg % is inflated because u put up a ton of put backs, but I hope to see you progress as a player & succeed. Also coming at my dog is weird, he doesn’t play basketball,” the fan fired back at Angel Reese.

“Shooting 39% is not a brag. Its pretty bad for your position,” one fan stated.

“Missing layups and shooting 39%, while still being an “a all star” isn’t the flex you think it is,” another person quipped.

“39% on layups cause that’s all ya did 💀,” one commenter stated.

“willingly admitting you shot 39% almost all in the paint is rough buddy you should delete this,” as another fan mocked Reese.

“A all star” no wonder yo a** had a 1.5 gpa 💀

Angel Reese Had A Solid Rookie Year That Was Cut Short

On Tuesday night, Angel Reese revisited a post from December 2023, when fans on social media were asked whether she was a first-round pick.

The majority of people stated, “No.”

Despite how people feel about Reese, her solid season and numbers proved how good she was and how much better she can be.

The Chicago Sky rookie was the WNBA leader this season in total rebounds per game and offensive rebounds per game before she was slated to miss the rest of the season because of a wrist injury.

Her final game of the year saw her finish with 24 points and 12 rebounds.

She ended her year averaging 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds per game this season.
