Social Media Destroys Angel Reese For Hitting Caitlin Clark In The Head

Social media was on fire after Angel Reese smoked Caitlin Clark in the head.

Clark and the Indiana Fever beat Reese and the Chicago Sky for the second time this WNBA season with a 91-83 victory Sunday.

Clark put together one of her best games of the season with 23 points, nine assists and eight rebounds. However, the moment that had everyone talking was when Reese hammered the Fever rookie in the head while attempting a block.

The play earned her a flagrant foul and the reactions to it on social media were electric.

And I have to admit that I was very proud of this one from myself.

There was no doubt in my mind that the moment Reese popped Clark in the head that social media was going to erupt, and that's exactly what happened.

It's been a trending topic since early Sunday afternoon, and it's likely not going to slow down throughout Monday.

Reese's case definitely wasn't helped by claiming the vicious hit was simply a "basketball play." Sure, she attempted to block Clark, but didn't come close. She jacked up the WNBA star's head instead.

The good news for the WNBA is people are paying attention and talking about the league. How many moments from the league were trending before Clark arrived? Not many, and it's now dominating social media. The WNBA has its unicorn and people don't like seeing her get rocked. Let me know what you think at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
