WNBA star Angel Reese accuses ex-NFL QB of \u2018lying\u2019 about her \u2018inner circle\u2019…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III posted on X (formerly Twitter) that individuals in Angel Reese’s “inner circle” told him Reese “hates” fellow WNBA player Caitlin Clark. Griffin claimed he shared this information while also condemning racist imagery directed at Reese.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Angel Reese didn’t name Griffin directly but responded sharply:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

> \u201cLying on this app when everybody know the first and last name of everybody in my circle for clout is nastyyyy work.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

She made it clear no one she trusts made that claim, calling the assertion a clout-driven falsehood.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Reese\u2019s Mom Speaks Out<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Angel Reese\u2019s mother also publicly denounced Griffin\u2019s claim:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

> \u201cMy daughter\u2019s \u2018circle\u2019 is so small & tight\u2026 Whomever you say \u2018called\u2019 you is not in her circle to speak on her feelings\u2026 Just stay on that side bc the doors are closed over here.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Griffin\u2019s Justification<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Griffin stated he spoke up to defend Reese from racism, not to provoke drama. He claimed:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

He received calls from Reese\u2019s inner circle.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

He isn\u2019t looking to be the “villain.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

He urged Reese to “tighten up your circle.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bernice King, daughter of Martin Luther King Jr., urged Griffin to directly communicate with Reese instead of airing personal claims publicly.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Former ESPN analyst Ryan Clark criticized Griffin for shifting attention away from the core issue of racism toward personal drama.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Robert Griffin III Someone in Reese\u2019s inner circle said she hates Caitlin Clark; he claims support was his motive.<\/p>\n

Angel Reese Denies the claim, calls it lying for clout.<\/p>\n

Angel Reese\u2019s mom Confirms no one in their tight inner circle made that statement.<\/p>\n

Bernice King Suggests Griffin should speak to Reese privately, not publicly.<\/p>\n

Ryan Clark Criticizes Griffin for turning focus away from racism issue.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The heart of this dispute is whether Griffin\u2019s source was genuinely connected to Reese\u2014and whether airing unverified commentary is responsible. Reese and her family deny the claim outright, while Griffin frames it as supporting truth. The debate continues around accountability, privacy, and media narrative.<\/p>\n
