This is all media driven to garner attention for the league. Only those with an agenda are falling for it.

Is Angel Reese immature? Yes. About as immature as most 23-year-olds. Is the WNBA taking that and stretching it into an agenda for profit? Again, yes.

Putting her on the cover only infuriates the haters. As you can see by this thread, it's working.

Where's she driving to? Another, mebound in the making?

Politics over profit, love the woke WNBA and their partners business bust model.

At least the photo rendering got her shoulder high no handle dribble right, she's on her way to carrying her triple double-dribble right off the Cover.

Does it come with/without the assistant coach handing her a clipboard after she calls her own plays that leads to a turnover and a 2 pt loss?


The dumb assistant to the strength coach is helping with plays?

Never seen a league go all in to hate and diminish its most transcendent player like this.


NBA2k tries to be as tuned into pop culture as much as it fancies itself as a basketball simulator. Putting Angel on the cover has more to do with them trying to tap into Angel's pop culture status (which is a total waste of time) than it does with Caitlin Clark being a far superior player. Whether you like it or not, Angel is as interested in becoming a pop icon as she is in being a professional basketball player. She's somehow parlayed bricking jumpshots into more IG followers than Caitlin. 2k isn't interested in Angel athletic abilities. They want the publicity that comes with her, such as her 5 million Instagram followers.

We get it. You don't like Angel Reese (For the record, I'm not a fan of hers either). Stop trying to make everything about race.

You have one woman, Caitlin, who is primarily focused on basketball, and another, Angel, who goes out of her way to be a part of pop culture. Stop being obtuse. I'm pretty sure you understand how that can lead to Angel having a larger social media following.

This is a mocking post referencing TX Tiger. I’m not making anything about race.

That play and the clipboard slap should be in sports lite. I doubt it will be though.
