Former NFL star Robert Griffin III said on Thursday that someone “Inner Circle” from Chicago’s sky star Angel Reese told him that the WNBA striker “hates” Caitlin Clark.
Griffin wrote several paragraphs on social networks, first coming to the defense of Reese after a racist image of his NBA 2K26. He said that there was “no place for racism in the world” and that Reese “should never be called or represented as a monkey”
He added that he was silent about Reese because of the hatred that he and his family received during the most recent speech in May after a controversial moment between the two stars of the WNBA.

“It will never agree with me. I have never attacked it to the family when I declared and backed up with clear basketball evidence that Angel Reese hates Caitlin Clark. It is sport. Not everyone will love each other,” he added. “The people of the inner circle of Angel called me and told me that I was right, and Angel Reese grew up to hate Caitlin Clark because of the media that always asked him about Caitlin and to be constantly compared to her.
“Some people have race, but I have never done it and I will never do it. Instead of becoming the villain in the story of anyone, I decided not to.
Reese seemed to answer Griffin’s remarks in a separate position.
“Going to this application when everyone knows the first and family name in my circle for a clout is a work of wickedness,” she wrote.
Reese’s mother also said that Griffin was lying on the conversation with the inner circle of the basketball player. “”

“What you say” called “U is not in his circle 2 talking about his feelings towards a media / fandom beef,” she wrote. “Stay on this side because the doors are closed here.”
Griffin retaliated.
“I took the floor to support Angel Reese against racism so as not to start the drama,” he wrote on X. “But I will not let anyone twist the truth simply because it is annoying to them. Instead of trying to check me, tighten your circle.
“They call me and say that you hate Caitlin Clark, not the opposite. I have no interest in being the villain in the story of anyone. I just want to have fun, tell the truth and celebrate sport. But I will not pretend or will only lie to protect feelings.”
Griffin made the initial affirmation that Reese “hates” Clark after the stars of the sky and fever took place in a heated skirmish in May.
