Robert Griffin III reignited the Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark controversy, expressing his belief about Reese’s lies. His opinion didn’t sit well with Ryan Clark, who didn’t hold back in calling out the former quarterback-turned-analyst, especially with a personal milestone in his life.

Clark ignited a heated debate around RG3’s marriage to Grete Griffin.
“When RG3 jumps onto the hate train or the angry train, it now follows what we saw from Keith Olbermann,” Clark said while speaking on “The Pivot Podcast.” “What we saw from Dave Portnoy as they poured onto Angel Reese to make her the villain, and Caitlin Clark the heroic or hero story.
“The one thing we know about RG3 is he’s not having conversations at his home about what Black women have to endure in this country.”

The story began when the Indiana Fever faced off against the Chicago Sky on Saturday at Gainbridge Fieldhouse during the WNBA 2025 season opener. Midway through the third quarter, Clark reacted strongly after what she believed was a foul on her teammate, Natasha Howard.
Clark made hard contact with Reese, knocking her to the floor. Then, Reese quickly got up and started shouting at Clark.
The confrontation seemed intense, but Clark and Reese downplayed the moment in their postgame interviews. Clark said it was just a “normal basketball play,” while Reese added, “Basketball play. Refs got it right. Move on.”
The incident could have ended there, but it didn’t. Shortly after the game, Griffin discussed the Reese vs. Clark controversy.
“After watching Caitlin Clark’s flagrant foul on Angel Reese and the aftermath, there is no way Angel Reese can continue the lie that she doesn’t dislike Caitlin Clark,” Griffin wrote on X. “I know what hatred looks like. Angel Reese HATES Caitlin Clark. Not some basketball rivalry hate either. Hate.”
