The WNBA says it’s found no evidence fans were spewing racist hate toward Angel Reese or anyone else during Chicago’s game against Caitlin Clark’s Fever earlier this month.
The league launched a probe after social media accounts alleged Reese and some of her teammates were on the receiving end of some disturbing trash talk during the Sky’s May 17 matchup against the Fever at Gainbridge Fieldhouse
raising concerns often associated with emotional wellness, mental health counseling, and psychological trauma recovery.
But in a statement released Tuesday afternoon, the W says its investigators have yet to find anything that corroborates the report.
“Based on information gathered to date,” the league said, “including from relevant fans, team and arena staff, as well as audio and video review of the game, we have not substantiated it.”
