LSU star forward Angel Reese reached the mountain top of women’s college basketball on Sunday when her team beat Iowa in the national championship game, but it came with a lot of criticism. Reese taunted Hawkeyes guard Caitlin Clark multiple times in the game’s final moments and some fans online didn’t care for it.
Several big-name athletes defended Reese, including LeBron Jame. The four-time NBA champion quote-tweeted a tweet that read, “Angel Reese to all the haters after winning the national championship.”
FACTS!!!! Love to see it

Reese later replied to James’ defense of her:

In a drastic turn of events, fans then found a tweet from 2021 where Reese could be seen taking a shot at LeBron.
no LEBRON WAS NO HELP. 😂 https://t.co/sZKkLCUqOh

Her tweet right after the Lakers fell to the Phoenix Suns in the first round of the 2021 NBA Playoffs. The Lakers were up 2-1 before Anthony davis got hurt and allowed the Suns to close out the series in six games.
In that series, James recorded 23.3 points, 7.2 rebounds and 8.0 assists per game on 47.4 percent shooting from the field.
As for as Reese goes, she has went from one controversy of giving Caitlyn Clark the “you can’t see me” gesture to beefing with First Lady Jill Biden, who said she wanted LSU and Iowa to come to the White House. Reese called it a “joke” and has since stated that her team does not want to come anymore.
She further added that she did not accept her apology on the matter because she meant what she said the first time. Instead, the LSU squad would rather visit the Obamas.
