JUST IN: Angel Reese SNUBBED — Ice Cube Chooses Clark and Drops a BOMBSHELL Truth

In a move that’s sparked both praie and backlash across the basketball world, entertainment mogul and BIG3 founder Ice Cube has officially chosen Caitlin Clark over Angel Reese for a high-profile promotional opportunity, leaving fans stunned and debate raging.

Sources close to the situation revealed that Ice Cube had extended a multimillion-dollar offer to Caitlin Clark earlier this year to join the BIG3 league — a revolutionary 3-on-3 basketball format featuring some of the biggest names in the game. While Clark declined the offer, what shocked many fans was that Angel Reese, one of the most talked-about young stars in the WNBA, was not given the same opportunity.

Ice Cube, known for his bold statements, addressed the controversy in a recent interview. “This wasn’t about disrespect,” he said. “It was a business decision. Caitlin has a huge following, and the BIG3 is about bringing attention and energy to the game in a new way. She’s got star power that crosses boundaries.”

His comments, however, did not sit well with everyone.

Many fans, particularly those supportive of Reese, took to social media to express their disappointment. Some critics accused the league of favoritism and racial bias, arguing that Reese’s strong personality and cultural influence were being overlooked or misunderstood.

Angel Reese has yet to directly comment on the snub, but she recently posted a cryptic message on X (formerly Twitter): “Bet. Watch me work.” Fans have interpreted it as a clear signal that she’s using the perceived slight as motivation.

Meanwhile, Caitlin Clark continues to shine in her rookie season, drawing record-breaking viewership numbers and selling out arenas across the country.

This decision by Ice Cube has added fuel to the ongoing narrative around the growing popularity — and scrutiny — of women’s basketball, especially as athletes like Clark and Reese become household names beyond the court.

As the WNBA season heats up and the BIG3 prepares for its next tournament, one thing is certain: the spotlight on these young stars isn’t fading anytime soon.
