LSU sophomore forward Angel Reese decided to throw some absolutely perfect shade right at Iowa junior guard Caitlin Clark toward the end of Sunday’s 2023 women’s NCAA tournament championship game.
As the clock ticked down on LSU’s 102-85 title victory, Reese decided to do the John Cena “you can’t see me” taunt that Clark used earlier in the tournament right to Clark’s face.
Reese also pointed to her ring finger as another jab at Clark and Iowa, a team that entered the day as the favorite to walk away with the championship.
Clark has done her fair share of taunting during the 2023 women’s NCAA tournament, so it’s really not all that surprising that LSU’s star forward would return the favor during the victorious moment.

Ahead of Sunday’s game LSU senior guard Alexis Morris called out Clark for what she called “disrespectful” defense, and the Tigers seem to have not taken Clark’s confident style of play lightly.
In a game that featured questionable officiating and plenty of controversy, you’ve got to hand it to Reese for reminding us all that this is all just a game. Being hilariously petty comes with the territory.
