Caitlin Clark Silences the Hype — And Angel Reese With It

Caitlin Clark’s return wasn’t just a comeback—it was a reset. After missing four games, she dropped 32 points, 9 assists, 8 rebounds, and 7 threes against the undefeated New York Liberty. In just 38 seconds, she hit three logo threes—no celebration, just execution.

Angel Reese? Ten rebounds. Four points. Lots of poses. But the spotlight never found her.

“Rivalries need friction,” one analyst tweeted. “This looked like a solo act.”

Clark didn’t address the narrative—she just played like she owned it. Her calm dominance shattered any illusion that she and Reese were still in the same conversation.

While Clark dismantled defenses and carried Indiana, Reese struggled to stay relevant. The Sky are sliding, and insiders are already raising concerns.

Yes, Reese is a brand. But Clark is a basketball problem—one opposing teams still can’t solve.

So let’s be honest: this was never Ali vs. Frazier. It’s Clark vs. expectations—and she’s winning.

The so-called rivalry? It ended in silence.

And a scoreboard that said everything.
