That's also when she became a popular foil to fellow WNBA rookie phenom Caitlin Clark, whose Iowa Hawkeyes lost to Reese's Tigers in the title game.Both Clark and Reese have given the WNBA an unprecedented boost in attendance, TV ratings and interest. The rivalry talk has become tired for Reese, who, a month into her pro career, declared she was done with having the media "twist my words."With her podcast, Reese will have the platform to speak her truth to a very large audience.
