“After I won the National Championship, my whole life changed, and that was the first time I had seen negativity like that on social networks. I thought I had many followers before, but it shot millions. It was bigger than basketball when they found my direction, my car. I had to change my whole lifestyle.
“It doesn’t bother me so much just because I feel that I have built a thicker skin, but not everyone has a thick skin. And that’s why I think players always approach me and ask me: ‘Are you okay? How are you?’ I really don’t know what is genuine, but I’m starting to open and branch a bit. “
Reese’s national 2023 national championship was highlighted by its incident with Caitlin Clark. The rivalry began on the court between the two female basketball stars.
Reese said he has approached All-Stars on his team this year, more than in 2024 when he was the WNBA team against the United States Olympic team before Paris Games.

“This is the closest thing I’ve been to these players this year. Last year, I was not so close. When I was in Phoenix (the host of the 2024 star game), it was very quiet,” he explained. “I didn’t talk to anyone. And that’s what I really love about this league, to be able to have sisters.
“I don’t have sisters. Being able to have sisters here that really worry about me and know that I can carry that and transform that into the community. There are many cyber harassed. I try to return everything I can.”
