Swin Cash expressed her frustration with media outlets for focusing solely on the single incident involving Reese.
Swin Cash, a three-time WNBA champion and four-time WNBA All-Star, criticized the media for its coverage of Angel Reese’s flagrant foul on Caitlin Clark during their Sunday matchup. Cash accused some outlets of doing “nasty work” by focusing solely on Reese’s foul, even though it was the main talking point in the Indiana Fever’s victory over the Chicago Sky.

Swin Cash, a three-time WNBA champion and four-time WNBA All-Star, criticized the media for focusing solely on Angel Reese’s flagrant foul on Caitlin Clark during their Sunday matchup. Cash, currently an executive with the New Orleans Pelicans, wrote on X, “To have the only highlight of Angel be that foul is nasty work by these outlets. You know what you’re doing while also questioning her intent is nonsense! They got it right, it was a flagrant 1 called by the refs & the players played on.”
Cash then offered her support to Reese, encouraging the WNBA rookie to keep her head up. “Smh Keep Pushin & Competing Angel,” the Basketball Hall of Famer added.
The incident occurred when Reese swung her arm and hit Clark in the face while attempting to block a shot, causing the Indiana Fever star to fall. After review, the referees upgraded the call from a common foul to a flagrant-1, sparking a social media firestorm.

Angel Reese finished the game with 11 points, 13 rebounds, and five assists, contributing to the Fever’s 91-83 victory. Reflecting on the game, Reese commented, “I think we went up really strong a lot of times and didn’t get a lot of calls. Going back and looking, I’ve seen a lot of calls that weren’t made. I guess some people get a special whistle.”
Caitlin Clark downplayed the incident after the game.

“It is what it is, you know, she’s trying to make a play on the ball and get the block,” said Caitlin Clark, who finished with 23 points, nine assists, and eight rebounds. “I mean, it happens, and those free throws when you have to shoot with nobody at the line are kind of hard. So I was just focusing on making those free throws.”
