Stephen A. Smith EXPLODES on Angel Reese After Caitlin Clark Stunt — “This Is Why the WNBA Can’t Evolve!”

Stephen A. Smith Calls Out Angel Reese After Controversial Post-Game Behavior

ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith unleashed a fierce tirade against Angel Reese following her viral “yawn” and sarcastic clapping directed at Caitlin Clark after a standout performance. The clip, viewed over 5 million times in 12 hours, ignited debate about professionalism and respect in the WNBA.

“That’s not confidence. That’s petty sabotage,” Smith declared. “You don’t pull that stunt on someone carrying the weight of the league!”

Reese, who fouled out early, appeared dismissive as Clark scored 29 points and dominated the fourth quarter. Fans condemned Reese’s actions as disrespectful and damaging to the league’s image.

Smith criticized both Reese and the WNBA’s silence:

“Angel acts like the league can’t hold two stars. Where’s the leadership? This looks like high school drama, not pro sports.”

The league and Reese have yet to respond, while Clark remains focused on her game.

Social media split, with Clark’s fans praising Smith, while Reese’s supporters call for fairness and maturity.

“This ain’t college,” Smith concluded. “If you’re not here to build — you’re here to block. And if you’re blocking what fans want? You don’t belong.”

The spotlight is on Reese: Will she rise to the moment or keep playing games?
