After a heated exchange between Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese in the Indiana Fever’s 93-58 win over the Chicago Sky on Saturday, Robert Griffin III claimed Reese “hates” Clark.

Not everybody was a fan of that statement. On the latest episode of The Pivot Podcast, Ryan Clark chastised Griffin for his accusation.

“RGIII saying he could recognize ‘hate when ‘he’ see(s) it,’ when referring to Angel Reese’s feelings toward Caitlin Clark was irresponsible, but not at all surprising,” Clark wrote on X.

“Clark’s the biggest star in women’s basketball, & deservedly so. No need to beat up Reese to add shine to it.

“RGIII plays into the narrative that Reese is the villain of Clark’s hero origin story. Now, Oberman & Portnoy, who berated Reese in college, have an ally in Griffin. Add him to the list of black men who’ve adopted the corny trend of denigrating black women to affirm their choices.

“Attacking Reese multiple times in order to gain favor from his desired crowd won’t help RGII blend in more. ‘Echoing the micro aggressions of racist won’t make him any less black than me.’”

Reese took exception when Clark committed a Flagrant 1 foul on her in the third quarter. Rees tried to go after Clark, but Fever center Aliyah Boston made sure to step in.

Reese and Boston were each assessed technical fouls.

 

Clark took his comments about Robert Griffin to the next level when he invoked his family into it.

On X, the former NFL quarterback posted a lengthy response to Clark, who said that Griffin is on the “list of black men who’ve adopted the corny trend of denigrating black women to affirm their choices.”

“Ryan Clark didn’t like my take on Angel Reese hating Caitlin Clark. That’s fine,” Griffin wrote.

“Disagreement is part of the game. But instead of debating my point, he personally attacked me and my family. That shows how low of person he is. I gave a sports opinion: I said Angel Reese hates Caitlin Clark, based on repeated, visible actions on the court and in press conferences. I backed it up with five separate examples from the game of basketball because that’s what I do. I analyze sports. I stay in the arena. Just because Angel Reese is Black doesn’t mean that her game and actions can not be critiqued.

At the end of the post, Robert Griffin wrote, “Disagree with me all you want. Challenge my take. But keep my family and wife out of it.

That’s a boundary that should always be respected. Ryan Clark personally attacking me and my family personally over a sports opinion is cowardly, spineless, and weak. Ryan Clark personally attacking me and my family personally over a sports opinion is a bad look for ESPN and for him as a man.”
