JUST IN: Caitlin Clark LANDS Major Adidas DEAL, Angel Reese’s Talent EXPOSED—Nike’s Silence is LOUD!!!

Billie Jean King just gave Caitlin Clark a huge shoutout, and it wasn’t for Nike. That’s right, an Adidas ambassador is praising Nike’s star rookie. Something’s not adding up.

You know what’s even crazier? This wasn’t just any old praise. King was celebrating Clark’s Rookie of the Year win. That’s a big deal! But why is Adidas cheering for a Nike athlete? It’s like seeing LeBron James rock some Under Armour gear. It just doesn’t make sense.

So where’s Nike in all of this? They’ve got this superstar rookie tearing up the court, breaking records left and right, and they’re… silent? What’s going on behind the scenes here? Is Adidas trying to swoop in and steal Nike’s thunder? Or is there more to this story than meets the eye? Let’s dig into this bizarre situation and figure out what’s really happening in the world of women’s basketball sponsorships.

Angel Reese, Caitlin Clark downplay impact of controversial flagrant foul

The budding Angel Reese-Caitlin Clark rivalry added another chapter on Sunday when Reese was assessed with a flagrant foul for hitting Clark in the head on a drive to the basket.

Officials originally called a common foul on Reese, but upgraded it to a Flagrant 1 after a video review.

After the game, a 91-83 win for Clark and the Indiana Fever over the Chicago Sky, Reese defended her actions, calling it “a basketball play.”

“I can’t control the refs. They affected the game a lot tonight,” she said. “I’m always going for the ball. But y’all going to play that clip 20 times before Monday.”

Clark agreed with Reese, saying, “It’s just part of basketball … Trying to make a play on the ball, get the block. I mean, it happens.”

Reese, the WNBA’s top offensive rebounder, was in foul trouble for a good part of the game and had to sit for a long stretch in the third quarter.

She was also hit with a delay-of-game warning at one point in the fourth quarter after a prolonged argument with officials.

“Going back and looking at the film, I’ve seen a lot of calls that weren’t made,” Reese said, before possibly adding more fuel to the fire.

“I guess some people got a special whistle.”

The two players and their teams meet again next Sunday for their third matchup of the season − this time in Chicago. Both of the previous games have featured national TV audiences and sellout crowds of over 17,000 at Indianapolis’ Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
