She is as unskilled as any player in the WNBA. She is awkward \u2013 and none of this gets talked about \u2013 look at the way she runs. Her lower body seems to be disconnected from her upper body. She\u2019s incredibly unathletic. She has no skill, no post-game. Candace Parker I\u2019m sure watches her and laughs and thinks like\u00a0\u2018THEY THINK THIS WOMAN IS GOING TO BE ME??\u2019<\/p>\n<p>This woman is a rebounder and that\u2019s it. She has no other skill, and that\u2019s why she hates Caitlin Clark so much. If Charles Barkley or someone else would make that point, the world would melt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Steve Kim:\u00a0\u201cThe most appealing and entertaining part of Angel Reese\u2019s game is when she walks into the locker room with her daily \u2018fit\u2019 as the kids say. She basically has the game of Joakim Noah, and she\u2019s talked about like she\u2019s Derrick Rose. We have to be honest about this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whitlock: \u201cShe WISHES she had Joakim Noah\u2019s game. Anybody can watch her in the post and see how she just throws the ball up and a lot of times it gets swatted away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; Watch Jason Whitlock\u00a0of Blaze TV\u2019s\u00a0Fearless\u00a0call out Chicago Sky forward\u00a0Angel Reese\u00a0for being\u00a0\u2018arguably the most overrated athlete in all of sports\u2019\u00a0despite a rookie season that is\u00a0being celebrated by the mainstream &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7950,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7949","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7949","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7949"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7949\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7951,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7949\/revisions\/7951"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/7950"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7949"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7949"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7949"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
