The world of women’s basketball is in turmoil after NBA legend Magic Johnson suddenly made a shocking move: publicly “terminating” Angel Reese, while implicitly affirming that Caitlin Clark is the real star worth investing in.

Angel Reese – from hope to humiliating shock

Just a few months ago, Angel Reese was hailed as the “new icon” of the WNBA. She not only attracted attention thanks to her fierce playing style but also became the face of many big brands. Fans believed that Reese would be the next name to take women’s basketball to a new level.

But everything changed in just one day, when Magic Johnson coldly declared to the press:

“She is not Caitlin Clark.”

Advertising contracts are withdrawn in series

According to many sources from the sports business world, after this statement, a series of advertising contracts worth millions of dollars with Angel Reese were canceled or frozen indefinitely. Brands were reportedly reluctant to take the risk, instead quickly turning their attention to Caitlin Clark – who was being heralded as a “fever” across America.

The explanation sparked outrage

When pressed for a reason, Magic Johnson gave a blunt answer:

“It’s about MONEY, not D.R.A.M.A.”

He emphasized that in the world of professional sports, the ability to create economic value is the key factor. And to prove this point, Magic Johnson publicly offered Caitlin Clark a $5 million deal – a move that dealt Angel Reese a heavy blow to her career.

Public opinion was fiercely divided

Reese fans were furious, claiming she was being unfairly compared and being a victim of commercial play.

Caitlin Clark’s supporters see this as proof that Clark is the “right star” to be the face of the WNBA.

Experts warn that this move could cause a deep rift within the US women’s basketball community, where both young stars have great potential.

How will Angel Reese react?

Angel Reese has not spoken out so far, but many sources confirm that she is under enormous pressure from both public opinion and commercial partners. Will Reese stand up to fight back strongly, or accept Caitlin Clark’s dominance?

One thing is for sure: with just one statement, Magic Johnson has pushed the underground war between two young talents into the global spotlight, and opened a new, stormy chapter in the women’s basketball world.
