Heisman winner calls for suspension of the Chicago Sky rookie amid heated rivalry
Former USC Trojans quarterback and 2004 Heisman Trophy winner Matt Leinart was left fuming over a hard foul committed by Angel Reese on Caitlin Clark. The incident occurred in the third quarter of the clash between the Chicago Sky and theIndiana Fever, reigniting a fierce rivalry.
Caitlin Clark, known for her fearless drives to the basket, attempted a layup when Reese intervened with what seemed to be a defensive play. However, the contact resulted in a significant hit to Clark’s head, raising questions about the foul’s intent. While Clark later remarked that she didn’t believe the foul was intentional, the debate was far from settled.
Angel Reese should be suspended. Period. Not good for the game.

Leinart, now an analyst on Fox Sports’ “Big Noon Kickoff,” took to social media to express his discontent. “Angel Reese should be suspended. Period. Not good for the game,” he declared on X, calling for immediate disciplinary action against Reese. His comments have sparked a heated discussion among fans and analysts alike.
Rivalry heats up: Reese and Clark’s growing tensions
The tension between Reese and Clark is not new. Earlier this month, Reese was seen celebrating a rough play by Chennedy Carter, which had also targeted Clark. This history has led some to believe that Reese’s foul on Sunday might have been more than just an aggressive defensive move.
Despite the outcry, the WNBA has yet to announce any punitive measures against Reese, mirroring their previous inaction following Carter’s foul. As the league remains silent, Clark continues to focus on her game. She led the Indiana Fever to a 91-83 victory over the Chicago Sky, showcasing her resilience and determination.
