Reese didn’t hold back in her response to being left off the ballot. Taking to social media, the Chicago Sky star expressed her outrage, posting, “Zero vote for Angel Reese? Are you kidding me? Someone paid the judges for sure.”
This candid and fiery remark immediately drew attention, sparking widespread debate across social media and the broader sports community.
Her comments are a clear indication of the frustration that many female athletes experience in their quest for recognition.
Reese’s call for re-ranking and her suggestion of foul play reveal a deep dissatisfaction with the way women’s sports are treated and the biases that still persist in sports media and voting systems.
For Reese, it’s not just about the award itself—it’s about fairness and visibility for women in sports.
“How can someone like me, who led their team to a national championship and was named MOP of the Final Four, get zero votes?” Reese questioned in a follow-up post. “It’s not just about me—it’s about the respect that female athletes deserve.”
Caitlin Clark’s Time magazine honor divides the WNBA
Clark was voted Time Athlete of the Year on December 11
Indiana Fever guard Caitlin ClarkLAPRESSE.
Matt Barnes, 2017 NBA champion with the Golden State Warriors, hit out at those playing down Caitlin Clark’s impact on women’s basketball after the 22-year-old star was voted Time Athlete of the Year on December 11.
Credited for transforming the WNBA and ushering in a new era of attention and popularity, the Indiana Fever ace has taken the league by storm in her debut season and averaged 19.2 points, 8.4 assists and 5.7 rebounds per-game on her way to becoming Rookie of the Year.
So it’s no shock that if any women’s player was nominated for Athlete of the Year, it was her but that’s not how the likes of Sheila Johnson, owner of the Washington Mystics, have read it as she claimed the wider rookie class is why the sport is more popular then ever.
Some agreed with the 75-year-old, and some disagreed, and it turns out that Barnes is in the latter camp as he came to the defense of the point guard after she collected the historic accolade.
“She’s damned if she does,” Barnes told the “All the Smoke” podcast. “And she’s damned if she doesn’t.
“While the NBA ratings continue to drop over 30% as they try to figure out who’s going to fill the shoes of LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Steph Curry, the WNBA has a golden goose sitting in their league.
“So instead of downplaying the magnitude of who she is and what she’s brought, enjoy the ride and take advantage of the ride and do everything you can do to show the fanbase why they should’ve been watching before Caitlin came along.”
Barnes did, however, concede she isn’t the sole reason for the boom in popularity as she also highlighted the Las Vegas Aces’ A’ja Wilson as another peer. He did add, though, that Clark offers a “ton of opportunity” and “more money” than anyone else.

They Arrested Her For Impersonating a SEAL Commander — The Admiral Said, “That Medal’s Authentic” They dragged her across the cold hangar floor in handcuffs, her hair loose, her plain clothes torn from the struggle. Soldiers whispered, officers sneered. “Impersonating a SEAL Commander? Pathetic.” To them, Alyssa Monroe was just another fraud. Just another civilian chasing glory she didn’t earn. No record in the system. No name on the rosters. No proof she had ever served. But as she stood before the tribunal, back straight and eyes burning with quiet defiance, one detail refused to be ignored — the small, weathered medal pinned to her chest. The guards laughed at it, calling it “stolen valor.” That’s when the doors opened. An Admiral walked in, the weight of four stars gleaming on his shoulders. The chatter died instantly. He studied Alyssa in silence, then stepped closer, his hand trembling as his eyes fixed on the medal. And when he finally spoke, the words shattered the room…

No One Answered the SEAL Team’s SOS — Until an Avenger Sniper Cut Through the Silence of the Night Afghanistan, Kunar Province. Midnight. Pinned down in a ravine, SEAL Team Echo whispered into their radios, voices raw with desperation. “This is Echo-3, taking heavy fire… anyone copy? Anyone?” Static. Nothing. Command had gone dark. The night pressed in, broken only by tracer fire tearing across the ridge. They thought they were finished. Outnumbered. Outgunned. Abandoned. Then—one shot cracked through the silence. A single bullet cut the night in half. An enemy machine gun nest went silent. From the shadows of the high ground, a figure emerged: Captain Elena “Viper” Kane, call sign Avenger. The sniper who had been presumed dead two years earlier. What happened next wasn’t just rescue. It was reckoning. And by dawn, every man in Echo Team would understand why some legends refuse to stay buried.
