The WNBA is investigating alleged racial comments from a fan or multiple fans directed toward Angel Reese during the Sky’s game against the Fever on Saturday, a source with knowledge of the situation told The Post.
“The WNBA strongly condemns racism, hate, and discrimination in all forms — they have no place in our league or in society,” the league said in a statement Sunday. “We are aware of the allegations and are looking into the matter.”
It’s unclear when the comments occurred during the Fever’s 93-58 win at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, but tempers did flare between Reese and Caitlin Clark — rivals dating back to their time at LSU and Iowa, respectively — in the third quarter after Resse grabbed an offensive rebound and Clark proceeded to commit a hard foul to prevent a shot.
