Joe Budden shared his opinion on the hotly contested race between Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese for Rookie of the Year.
The former rapper said Clark is a “helluva lot better than Angeel Reese.”
During his podcast on Wednesday, Budden said, “I have seen footage of Caitlin Clark now and I’ve seen footage of Angel Reese. I’m as pro-Black as all the pro-Black people — and I’m not trying to cause a kerfuffle — Caitlin Clark is a helluva lot better than Angel Reese.”
Budden is not impressed by Reese’s rebounding spree.
He also questions why the two ladies are constantly compared when they both play separate positions.
“In no world did they ever compare Dennis Rodman’s rebounding a*s with [Michael] Jordan. They never did that. Nobody ever said Ben Wallace could give Michael Jordan a run for his money.”
Budden continued: “I’m telling y’all that Caitlin Clark — if we’re talking ’bout a basketball — she had enough of you Olympic h*es! She has been on an absolute warpath since y’all left her off the Olympics. And I’m not gon’ just ignore it ’cause she’s white. She is smokin’ you b*tches out there!”

Clark and the Indiana Fever upset the No. 2 ranked Connecticut Sun 84-80 in front of a sold-out crowd on Wednesday in Indiana.
Clark set a record for most three-pointers by a rookie in a season (86).
Among the celebrities in the house were Olympic gold medalists Simone Biles and Gabby Thomas. The ladies posed for photos with the Fever players after the game.

Meanwhile, Reese and the Chicago Sky fell to the Washington Mystics 74-70 on Wednesday. The Chicago Sky is 1-5 with 4 straight losses since the Olympic break. The Indiana Fever are 5-1 since the break.
After the game, Reese promoted her new podcast “Unapologetically Angel.”

As usual, Reese is too focused on her brand to get why Sky fans are so upset with her.
Angel Reese is the worst offensive player I’ve ever seen. You’re down 2, you know you can’t make open shots consistently, you’re 3-9 for the night, yet you decide to go into the paint and shoot over 3 players instead of passing the ball, all within 3 seconds of the shot clock. pic.twitter.com/ZHHhcwujBh

Can someone explain to me why the Chicago Sky give Angel Reese so many touches, when the majority of them end up with her out of control and missing badly?
Unless Reese has a 5’6 girl on her, Cardosa should get all the post touches. pic.twitter.com/Ayerg6iA2R
