DeWanna Bonner Roasts Angel Reese After Fever’s Win: WNBA Drama Heats Up
In a fiery postgame moment, WNBA legend DeWanna Bonner unleashed a brutal critique of Chicago Sky’s Angel Reese following the Indiana Fever’s 95–78 victory. Just minutes after Caitlin Clark’s stellar 32-point performance sealed the game, Bonner didn’t hold back during the live broadcast.
Bonner’s Scathing Breakdown
“Angel, you came out swinging, but ran out of gas,” Bonner quipped. “I’ve seen more fire at a Sunday church service!” Her zingers—like calling Reese the “only player who scores less by standing still”—quickly went viral, leaving rookie Caitlin Clark visibly stunned courtside.
Clark later responded with grace: “DeWanna’s a legend. I just didn’t expect my name in the same sentence as Angel’s struggles.”
Reese Responds with Poise
Reese, quiet postgame, admitted: “It stung. But if it helps me grow, I’ll take it.” Her coaches and teammates rallied behind her, turning the criticism into motivation.
Fans, Media, and the League React
Social media split: #ProtectAngel criticized Bonner’s tone, while #TruthHurts praised her honesty. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith urged Reese to respond on the court, while Commissioner Cathy Engelbert emphasized respectful debate.
A Must-Watch Rematch Awaits
With a rematch looming, Reese has a chance to turn the roast into redemption. As Bonner reminded fans, “Respect is earned nightly—and sometimes, you gotta laugh to grow.”
