Angel Reese took center stage this week after her team, Rose BC, won the Unrivaled league championship. The celebrated victory netted all the players, including Reese, a lucrative $50,000 bonus.
Although Reese didn’t participate in the playoffs due to a hand/wrist injury, her status as the Unrivaled Defensive Player of the Year makes her well deserving of the reward.
The Sky rookie took to her social media to share her excitement and tweeted- “50K NEED DATTTTT.”
However, like much of her on-court playmaking, Reese’s tweet got the attention of many, including Indiana Fever guard Sydney Colson. The Fever star jokingly retweeted Reese and assured her she could help if the Sky star needed any laying hand to spare that 50k bonus.
However, Reese quickly turned the tables with a clever rebuttal, reminding Colson that as a rookie, her contract was barely more than the bonus money she won. Specifically, she emphasized that the $50,000 was more than half of her entire salary, making it clear that she had to be prudent with her newfound wealth.
Reese’s response cleverly took a dig at the financial realities that many rookie players face in the WNBA. Though she has long been vocal about the pay gap between NBA and WNBA. And her recent tweet only adds to her frustration with financial disparity.

After an exciting first season of the Unrivaled League, Rose BC made history by winning the inaugural championship. It was a nail-biter, with Rose BC battling through adversity to secure a 62-54 victory over Vinyl BC.
The victory came in a hard way as their key player, Reese, was missing from the roster due to a hand injury. Brittney Sykes came up big in the title game, scoring 21 points and showing incredible leadership.
Despite not being able to play, Reese smiled as she cheered on her teammates from afar, celebrating their well-deserved victory.
Reese couldn’t contain her excitement and took to social media to share her thoughts and dropped a cheeky tweet.
“WHAT YALL GON SAY NOW??” Reese wrote.
However, the Chicago Sky quickly chimed in with an encouraging message of their own.
“Year 2 loading…” the team’s official handle wrote.
As Reese looks ahead to the WNBA season kicking off in May, fans can’t wait to see how she’ll bring the confidence. And afterall winning the 3×3 league would be a much needed boost for the young rookie.

Karoline Leavitt vs. Cher: The Live TV Clash That Left a Studio Silent and Viewers in Total Shock
What started as a standard political-meets-pop-culture segment quickly spiraled into one of the most unforgettable live television moments in recent memory. In a rare and fiery on-air confrontation, conservative commentator Karoline Leavitt and music icon Cher exchanged words so sharp that the producers of the program were forced to cut the feed early — and audiences haven’t stopped talking since. The Setup: Two Worlds, One Collision The segment was promoted as a cross-generational dialogue between entertainment and politics. Cher, no stranger to voicing bold opinions on political and cultural issues, was set to appear alongside Karoline Leavitt, a rising Republican voice and former White House staffer. Producers expected sparks — but nothing like what actually unfolded. From the opening moments, it was clear the two women did not see eye-to-eye. The topic that ignited the match? A conversation about free speech, online censorship, and media bias — issues both had spoken about in different contexts. Cher, impassioned and animated, criticized what she described as “right-wing disinformation campaigns.” Leavitt, calm but assertive, responded by pointing out inconsistencies in celebrity activism and accused figures like Cher of “dismissing entire groups of Americans based on political affiliation.” Tension began to rise — and fast. The Turning Point: One Line, Total Silence Midway through the exchange, Cher made a remark questioning the legitimacy of Leavitt’s views, suggesting her “resume was political, not intellectual.” That’s when Leavitt delivered the line that stopped the show. “Maybe if you spent less time on Twitter and more time listening to people who don’t already agree with you, you’d actually understand what’s happening in this country.” There was no shouting.No raised voice.Just a sharp, surgical statement — and then silence. The co-hosts looked stunned.The audience stopped clapping.And for several seconds, no one said anything….
