Caitlin Clark-Angel Reese tension returns thanks to Connor McCaffery’s brother’s controversial remarks

or one unforgettable moment during the WNBA All-Star Game, it looked like the tension between Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese had finally been squashed. But Clark’s on court actions have been undermined by her controversial boyfriend Connor McCaffery, whose family can’t keep Angel Reese’s name out of their mouths.

Jack McCaffery, brother of Caitlin Clark’s boyfriend Connor McCaffery, made some uncomfortable comments about Reese and fellow WNBA star Brittney Griner on a TikTok live video, hosted by none other than Clark’s former Iowa teammate.

“You guys weren’t responding to any of my questions in the live,” Jack says to Iowa basketball player Jada Gyamfi from out of the frame.

“I just kept saying rate Angel Reese 1-10,” he says, laughing and trying to get the viewers to comment on Reese’s appearance.

Then, he targeted Brittney Griner, the formerly exiled star who has returned to her best for the Phoenix Mercury and Team USA this year. McCaffery makes an insensitive remark about Griner’s 𝓈ℯ𝓍uality and follows it with a callous joke about her being detained in Russia, before begging the chat to join in.

Clark’s passive attitude toward the inflammatory actions of her fan base and her boyfriend have led to criticism of the Indiana Fever rookie who has done so many good things for the league. She plays nice to Reese’s face, but seems unbothered when her boyfriend talks behind her back and tears down Black women in the WNBA.

Clark is currently on vacation in Mexico, tantalizing fans and Connor with swimsuit pics in the sunshine. Meanwhile, Reese’s Paris vacation got off to a bumpy start, but the Chi Town Barbie has also managed to turn some heads on her European travels.

Clark and Reese may have entered the WNBA Olympic break on good terms on the court, but it hasn’t taken long for the outside drama to bring back memories of their intense NCAA rivalry.
