Caitlin Clark’s Boyfriend and family Caught Liking Hate Comments About Angel Reese!
Despite the amicable facade in Caitlin Clark’s purported rivalry with Angel Reese over the past two seasons, behind the scenes, there’s a different story brewing.
After Saturday’s match between the Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky, both Clark’s boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, and her brother, Colin Clark, reportedly endorsed social media posts that criticized the former LSU Tigers star.
“Clark Boyfriend has been liking hate tweets about Angel Reese since last year and now her Brother on this app liking hate tweets about her as well but y’all swear Angel is the problem and that she has a “one sided” beef with Clark tho,” one fan wrote.
“Like, get serious,” the fan added, showcasing screenshots of the favorited messages.
In a highly-anticipated game between the Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky on Saturday, Caitlin Clark faced a brutal bodycheck from Chennedy Carter, only to have Angel Reese leap off the bench in celebration.
The incident stirred up massive controversy, igniting a flurry of reactions online. Notably, two of Clark’s staunchest supporters seemingly weighed in on the matter.
Clark, who is in a relationship with her college sweetheart Connor McCaffery, caught the attention of fans who noticed his frequent ‘likes’ on posts condemning Reese over the past year.
In one particularly pointed post, Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy labels Reese as a ‘classless piece of s***’ following her infamous ring celebration aimed at Clark during their college days.
Another post liked by McCaffery refers to Reese as ‘highkey not good… she’s just bigger than everyone.’
Furthermore, there’s a third post addressing Clark and Reese sharing the college basketball Athlete of the Year award. The message, endorsed by McCaffery, criticizes the decision to bestow the title on both players instead of solely on Clark, insinuating that the publication succumbed to fear of internet backlash.
Meanwhile, Clark’s brother Colin hasn’t shied away from expressing his own opinions. He favorited a tweet about Reese ‘hopping off the bench to throw a parade for Caitlin Clark’s murder’.
In addition, he liked a tweet suggesting that Draymond Green would have faced legal repercussions if he had committed the same act as Carter did to Clark in the Fever-Sky matchup.
The on-court controversy has ignited significant debate online, and it’s poised to escalate further as these high-profile athletes continue their professional careers.
Clark, chosen as the top pick in May’s WNBA Draft, found herself matched against Reese, a former NCAA champion with LSU, who went seventh overall to Chicago.
In a dramatic turn of events during Saturday’s game, Clark ultimately emerged victorious as her team clinched a narrow one-point win. The 71-70 triumph marked their first home victory of the season.
As the clock ticked down in the third quarter, with just 15 seconds remaining, Clark seized the moment to share her immediate reaction with ESPN.
Angel Reese, on the other hand, has taken steps to clarify her relationship with Clark.
“Me and Caitlin Clark don’t hate each other,” she emphasized. “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. I’m going to do whatever it takes to get in your head the whole entire game, but after the game, we can kick it. I don’t think people really realize that.”
As for how the rivalry will unfold on the WNBA court in the future, only time will tell.
