Robert Griffin III, Angel Reese Feud Over Clark Claims

A heated online feud erupted after former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III attempted to defend WNBA star Angel Reese from a racist social media post but then claimed members of her inner circle told him she 'hates' rival Caitlin Clark. Angel Reese strongly denied Griffin's assertion, calling it 'nasty work' and emphasizing the transparency of her inner circle. Reese's mother and several supporters also refuted Griffin's claim, criticizing him for spreading rumors and detracting from the real issue of racism. ESPN analyst Ryan Clark condemned Griffin for shifting the conversation away from racism to personal drama and accused him of making himself both 'the victim and the hero.' The controversy has sparked significant debate about responsibility and integrity in sports commentary. The incident highlights ongoing tensions surrounding media narratives about Reese and Clark, as well as the complexities of race and rivalry in women's basketball.
