“After winning the national championship, my whole life has changed, and it was the first time I saw a negativity like this on social networks. I thought I had a huge audience before, but it skyrocketed millions. It was greater than basketball when they found my address, my car. I had to change all my lifestyle.
“I don’t mind as much because I feel like I have built a thicker skin, but not everyone has thick skin. And that’s why I think players always come to me and ask me:” Are you fine? How are you doing? “I don’t really know what is authentic, but I’m starting to open and connect a little.”
The National Reese Championship match in 2023 was highlighted by its incident with Caitlin Clark. It started rivalry on the ground between the two stars of women’s basketball.
Reese said that she had come closer to the All-Stars of her team this year, more than in 2024, when it was the WNBA team against the American Olympic team before the Paris Games.

“It is the closest to these players this year. Last year, I was not so close. When I was in Phoenix (the host of the 2024 star game), I was very silent,” she said. “I haven’t talked to anyone. And that’s what I really like in this league, being able to have sisters.
“I have no sisters. Being able to have sisters here who really care, really from me and knowing that I can take this and transform it into a community. There is a lot of cyberbullying. I try to restore as much as possible.”
