The Chicago Sky star is standing up for those who aren’t even on her team.
Angel Reese, although she may have rubbed some people the wrong way during her time at LSU due to her confidence on the court, continues to do everything in her power to uplift women within the basketball industry.
On Friday, she came to the defense of two players who aren’t her teammates. They were subjected to transphobia and damaging comments from a Twitter user despite both of them being biological women.
The two black women are Kalani Brown and Teaira McCowan. Both players are listed at 6-foot-7, which apparently allows for social media users to make false and disgusting claims about them.
Reese, along with plenty of others online, came to their defense and rightfully called out the user. WNBA players have enough on their plate trying to change the perception about women athletes in general. It makes it much more difficult, particularly for black players, when rhetoric like this continues to exist.
Reese and the Chicago Sky are currently preparing for their regular season opener. They will be going against the Dallas Wings, with Brown and McCowan on the opposing side.
