I've never seen an athlete treated the way Angel Reese is treated, and I genuinely want to know why.
What exactly has she done to deserve this level of hate? What has she said? She barely speaks publicly
If this is still about something that happened in college, then maybe we should admit it's forced. Who else is judged this harshly for something they did in college years later? She didn't commit a crime.
And before people start comparing her to others, most athletes under a microscope still receive praise when they have great games, reach milestones, or accomplish something special. Angel often doesn't get that same grace.
It goes beyond basketball too.
She models? People hate. She celebrates her partner ? People hate. She launches a business? People hate. She drops a shoe? People hate.
Even when she has a career accomplishment, people immediately search for ways to discredit it, there are entire YouTube channels, X accounts, and TikTok pages dedicated to tearing her down.
If you want to bring up LeBron, that's different. He's been in the GOAT conversation for over 20 years. Criticism comes with that territory when you're being compared to the greatest ever.
But Angel Reese is only a few years into her professional career.
So what is it? What's the real reason?

I’m genuinely confused tho….Is AR going to have to draw blood in order to get fouls called consistently in the paint. I just watched Izzy & Mabrey both take turns wacking her with all their might & somehow it was a fucking jump ball.
I’m so serious about this too.
Career nights all around out west! 👏
Kelsey Plum (43 points) and Kahleah Copper (41 points) finish with the first dueling 40-point games in WNBA history (incl. playoffs) 🤯
For every young Black coach who has ever been told to wait their turn.
For every assistant coach who stayed late, sacrificed time with family, and poured into others while waiting for an opportunity.
For every coach who carried the weight of representing more than just themselves.
Tonight is for you.
Congratulations to Mike Brown on winning the 2026 NBA Championship.
His journey has been built on faith, perseverance, preparation, and an unwavering commitment to the game.
After decades of serving, teaching, leading, and winning, Coach Brown now adds NBA Champion Head Coach to his legacy.
He joins an elite fraternity of Black Head Coaches who have led their teams to an NBA title:
Bill Russell Al Attles Lenny Wilkens K.C. Jones Doc Rivers Ty Lue Joe Mazzulla
These names represent more than championships.
They represent doors opened. Barriers broken. Dreams realized.
When one of us wins, we all win.
Congratulations, Coach Mike Brown!
HE WIN. WE WIN.

Shoutout to the Daily W for this article and for quoting Angel correctly from the original source. The rest of the article is in the comments. A great read. 💯
Karl-Anthony Towns talks about feeling the presence of his late mother and the support he's gotten from his fiancé, Jordyn Woods:
"Her presence is always felt in my life. You always pray you're going to pick the right woman for you and I know I did in my fiancé. I damn sure know now with that bag, that bag held it down. Shout-out to Woods by Jordyn.
It's crazy, when she passed, there was so much turmoil in my life. Funny enough, my fiancé was the one, who was a friend at the time, was the only person I got to call before I had to go out there and say bye to her at the hospital. Me and her have a real bond that goes deeper than just physical features and everything like that. We've got a true friendship that was built from the ground up.
I remember just always asking her if this was going to be my last time seeing her in the physical, let me feel her spirit at all times. In moments of true pressure and a lot of things going on, I always feel this calming come to me and it's always her. It's just great to always feel her arms around me and always to feel her love in my life, in so many different ways.
It's a testament. I haven't felt love from a woman like that until I met my fiancé. It really means a lot that, in a way - without sounding weird - Jackie Jr. was able to be here celebrating this moment with me.
It's amazing. It's truly a humbling feeling when you know you have walked the path. I stayed faithful. In every decision that I was supposed to make, I made the right one. Feels good to be at this moment."
