Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever will take on Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky in the Wintrust Arena in Chicago today. The anticipation is high, and the ticket prices reflect that. The average ticket price on ticketing platform TickPick is $334, with the cheapest ticket going for $180 and the most expensive ticket going for $10,609.

These ticket prices make this game the most expensive in WNBA history. This just goes to show the impact both Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese and their rivalry have had on the WNBA. The two stars’ rivalry began in 2023 when they faced off in the NCAA March Madness tournament. Reese got the better of Clark on that occasion.

However, in the WNBA, their rivalry has gone to another level. Things have gotten more heated, as Angel Reese applauded her teammate for taking a cheap shot at Clark during one of their games.

Reese brings physicality anytime she plays against Clark, as she made a hard foul on Clark during one of their games, which many fans felt that she should have gotten ejected for. Surprisingly, Reese after the game suggested that the referees were in favor of Clark, giving calls to her and the Fever’s advantage.

For her part, Clark hasn’t shied away from the physicality, noting that she will do whatever she needs in order to adjust to the physical play from her opponents. But it is clear that it isn’t necessarily a friendly rivalry between the two, as they bring an intensity to their games against each other which we don’t see in other WNBA games.


Angel Reese Wants Her Credit For WNBA’s Popularity

Angel Reese has pushed back on the idea that Caitlin Clark is single-handedly responsible for the rising popularity of the WNBA, suggesting that she is also partly responsible for the surging interest in the league.

Undoubtedly, both players can be credited for the success of the WNBA in recent months. Magic Johnson recently praised both women for their contributions to the women’s game, and how they are helping it gain more mainstream coverage.

Perhaps this rivalry is also motivated by the heated Rookie of the Year race between the two. Jaylen Brown, who is friends with Angel Reese through his girlfriend and Reese’s teammate Kysre Gondrezick, claimed that Reese should be named Rookie of the Year.

But a quick look at their stats show that Clark is far and ahead the only choice of Rookie of the Year, as she leads over Reese in 11 of the 12 possible statistical categories.

Regardless of who wins Rookie of the Year, there is no denying how much of an impact the two women have had on the WNBA.

Their rivalry is expected to carry the WNBA into a new age of prosperity, much like Larry Bird and Magic Johnson’s rivalry did for the NBA in the 1980s.

Clark and Reese’s final showdown for the season will be one for the ages, and fans will try to pack into the Wintrust Arena to get a glimpse of the two superstars go at it once again.
