A wave of outrage is spreading across social media after sports commentator Jason Whitlock made a shocking statement on his latest podcast.

In a sarcastic tone, Whitlock said:

“Angel Reese is the most unskilled player in basketball history. She has no real skills at all — just hype and attitude.”

The statement immediately caused a storm, leaving sports fans, players, and the media unable to sit still.



💥 Netizens exploded: “What did he just say?!”

Just minutes after the clip was posted, the phrase “Leave Angel Reese Alone” climbed straight to the top of global trends.

Thousands of comments hit back at Whitlock, saying this was a disrespectful and personal attack.

One fan wrote:

“Angel may not be perfect, but she is an icon of effort and passion. Saying she has ‘no skills’ is too much.”

Another responded sharply:

“Jason Whitlock is trying to get attention by successfully attacking women of color — that’s old news.”

🏀 How did Angel Reese react?

While the public opinion exploded, Angel Reese remained surprisingly calm.

On her personal X page, she only wrote one line:

“Keep watching. I’ll let my game do the talking.”

The tweet attracted more than 2.5 million views in 2 hours, and a series of professional athletes commented in support of her.

NBA star LeBron James also left a short but meaningful tweet:

“They always attack the confident ones. Keep shining, Queen 👑.”

🔥 Reese’s teammates and coaches speak out

Angel Reese’s coach said:

“If Angel is ‘unskilled,’ then I want 12 ‘unskilled’ players like her on the team.”

A close teammate said at the press conference:

“Whenever Angel is on the court, she brings energy, determination, and a fighting spirit. That’s true skill.”

🧨 Jason Whitlock gets a backlash

After a wave of criticism, Whitlock continued to defend his stance, saying he was “just telling the truth.”

But what is the truth — and where is the line between “sports criticism” and “personal insult”?

An ESPN commentator commented:

“Whitlock’s statement was not professional analysis. It was a diatribe, and that hurt a lot of people.”

🌟 Angel Reese — an icon who transcends controversy

Despite the public storm, Angel Reese continued to play impressively, averaging 18 points and 12 rebounds per game, helping her team maintain its top position.

She even posted a smiling photo with the caption:

“Still unskilled, huh?” 😏

The photo received over 1.2 million likes — and perhaps, it was the most resolute answer to all the doubters.

💬 Conclusion

In the world of sports, where all eyes are on you, Angel Reese is still proving that:

Skill is not just in the hands, but also in the mind.

And as Jason Whitlock continues to “talk,” Angel Reese is still doing — and winning.
