Napheesa Collier Calls Out Angel Reese for “Cheating”: Sparks Controversy in the WNBA
Minnesota Lynx star Napheesa Collier has ignited WNBA debates by publicly accusing Chicago Sky’s Angel Reese of “cheating” during a postgame interview. Following a tense matchup, Collier didn’t hold back:
“It’s not hustle. It’s cheating… padding stats, taking dives — this isn’t WWE,” she stated.
Her remarks instantly went viral, with fans and players divided. Some applauded Collier’s honesty, accusing Reese of prioritizing fame over fair play. Viral clips even show Reese boxing out teammates and demanding rebounds to chase stat milestones.
While Angel Reese enjoys massive popularity and brand deals, Collier argues that integrity matters more.
“She’s talented, but talent without integrity hurts the league,” Collier emphasized.
The WNBA has remained silent, but pressure is mounting. Critics argue that promoting Reese while ignoring these concerns threatens the league’s credibility.
As the conversation heats up, one message is loud and clear: Veterans like Collier demand accountability — and won’t stay silent.
The league now faces a choice: protect its image or preserve the game.
