Atlanta Dream star Brittney Griner had to defend Angel Reese online after a fake quote of her emerged saying Griner could beat NBA legend Allen Iverson in a game of one-on-one

Ever since she entered the WNBA last year, Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese has emerged as one of the most high-profile players in the league, especially given her rivalry with Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark.

"I love Allen Iverson," Reese said prior to the Sky's matchup with the Indiana Fever at the United Center. "He has that mentality of a dog, he's a killer. No matter what he goes out there and gives his all every night and that's what I try to do, good or bad, I always try to give my all. It's always great to have him in my corner."
