Angel Reese said she has no hard feelings toward Caitlin Clark as they prepare for the LSU-Iowa rematch, saying the two stars 'don't hate each other.'
Much has been made about the competitive fire and trash talk both players display when they are on the court. But when Reese pointed at her finger and made the John Cena"You can't see me" hand gesture at Clark asReese was once again asked Sunday about talking trash, particularly as it relates to what happened last year.
"I don't think people realize it's not personal," Reese said."Once we get out between those lines, if I see you walking down the street, it's like, 'Hey, girl, what's up? Let's hang out.' I think people just take it like we hate each other. Me and Caitlin Clark don't hate each other. I want everybody to understand that. It's just a super-competitive game. Once I get between those lines, there's no friends. I'm going to talk trash to you.
Reese described her relationship with Clark as"super-competitive," noting the two had been playing each other since high school and then again when Reese started her career at Asked about the way Larry Bird and Magic Johnson were always linked after playing each other in the national championship game, and whether that applies to Clark and her, Reese said:"People do compare that matchup all the time, but I've never seen the matchup, so I'm not really familiar with it.""There's definitely that competitive fire," Clark said.
"I think that's the main similarity is how competitive we are. We both grew up loving this game, and we're going to do anything we can to help our teams win."said."When you think about hockey and the fights, people like to see that. That's not why we do it. It's our personalities. It's what makes the game fun for us. I think enough people enjoy it, obviously, because women's basketball is doing better than it's ever done.
