Angel Reese and the LSU Tigers have fallen short in their bid to win back-to-back National Championships. But they have certainly provided us with a ton of entertainment during their impressive run to the Elite 8.
The Tigers were taken down on Monday night in a rematch of last year’s NCAA Women’s Tournament Finals, as Caitlin Clark’s 41 points helped lead Iowa to a 94-87 victory.
Despite the loss, Angel Reese was still trending throughout the evening. Much of that had to do with her impressive stat line that read 17 points, 20 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and two steals. However, much of the buzz surrounding Reese was also concerning a video that surfaced online, showing the LSU star posing for the camera in an assortment of microscopic bikinis.
The clip had many on social media questioning those who have called Angel Reese “mid” in the past.

I think it’s fair to say that Angel Reese is just as impressive off the court as she is on it.
What’s Next For Angel Reese?
Reese’s season certainly didn’t end the way she had probably hoped it would, as the Tigers forward fouled out late in the team’s heartbreaking loss to the Hawkeyes.
It was a tough pill to swallow, as LSU entered the tournament with championship aspirations once again. With the loss, however, the focus quickly shifted to the future of Angel Reese, as many are left wondering what’s next for one of the biggest NIL earners in college sports.
Reese could opt to return to the Tigers for another season, and it wouldn’t be the worst idea based on all the money she’s earned so far at the college level. Or, she could take her talents to the WNBA, where she’s bound to be taken with a lottery pick in the draft and should continue to earn millions as her current endorsement deals are expected to carry over once she turns professional.
Caitlin Clark Is Getting Destroyed On Social Media After Her Shady Play During Friday Night’s Win Over The Mercury

Indiana Fever star rookie Caitlin Clark enjoyed another win over Diana Taurasi’s Phoenix Mercury on Friday night with a 20-point, 13-assist performance.
The stat line marked a fifth double-double for the former Iowa guard, who was one assist away from setting a new franchise record.
It appears she tried to get it, too, as she swung a pass to teammate Aliyah Boston at the end of the fourth quarter. Given that Indiana was up by nine points with the clock running out, the decision prompted criticism, with one fan claiming Clark was “trying to stat pad for an assist record.”
Boston missed the jumper, in any case.
