Angel Reese is the most followed WNBA star with 5 million followers on Instagram. Ironically, this number surpasses the official WNBA account, which has 3.4 million followers. While this highlights her massive popularity, making bold claims can sometimes bite back.
In a recent video, the Chicago Sky forward is seen going through the streets of Indiana, her arch-rival Caitlin Clark’s home turf. While some fans wave at her and show their love, the video had “Walk In Your Trap, Takeover Your Trap” as a caption. Fans found it funny and embarrassing as they commented on the post.
Fans Lashed Out At Angel Reese’s Recent ‘Take Over’ Post
Chi-Town Barbie made it into her second WNBA All-Star game. The game was at Gainbridge Fieldhouse Arena, home of the Indiana Fever – Caitlin Clark’s franchise. While the Windy City star had some bad experiences in the arena, her All-Star game went smoothly.
In one of the videos, she is passing by the streets of Indiana, where a few fans show their appreciation for the forward. The 23-year-old was touched by the love and shared the video on social media. But the caption “Walk In Your Trap, Takeover Your Trap” might have triggered die-hard CC fans.

While the fans did not leave any trolling for some other time, the Chicago rookie is making a great case for herself. Be it on or off the court.
Angel Reese Looking To Build Her Brand
The former LSU star was a celebrity before entering the ‘W.’ She was among the highest-earning college athletes following partnerships with major brands like Reebok, Beats by Dre, and McDonald’s. But many criticized her game when compared to her on-court rival, CC. Yet in recent games, the forward showed massive improvement in her shooting and made history with eight straight double-double performances to lead her team to victory.
While on the court, she is changing the narrative about herself; off the court, she also makes a name for herself as an icon. Leveraging her WNBA success and charisma to expand into fashion, media, and other ventures, the star is omnipresent. She has her fashion line, “MeBound,” with proceeds benefiting her foundation, which focuses on supporting young girls and combating cyberbullying.
The ‘rebounding queen’ also has partnerships with brands like Reebok, including a signature shoe line. She also featured in high-fashion publications like Vogue. The star added many top brands like Good American, Khloe Kardashian’s denim brand, to her portfolio, highlighting her appeal to a broader audience.
