Angel Reese Trouble: She Missed LSU’s Game Once Again.
With standout player Angel Reese out of the lineup, the LSU women’s basketball team is going through a lot of controversy right now. Although she has strongly refuted any of the accusations, there have been whispers that her grades are the cause of it.
At the Cayman Islands Classic basketball tournament on Friday, Reese was not present for the match against Niagara. The commotion surrounding her case has caused her to miss three games of Lady Tigers basketball total this season.

Reese has been aggressive toward anyone who follows her since the accusations that she struggles academically first surfaced.
She also shared a video including the well-known line, “What about me would make you think that I care about your opinion of me?” narrated by Deion Sanders. The problem is getting worse since no one is responding to questions from the media, and Friday’s decision to exclude Reese from Saturday’s game is making matters worse.

On Friday, Reese’s coach Kim Mulkey declined to comment on any inquiries. Not even the question of whether Reese would return to hanging out with her teammates in the Caymans was addressed by her.
According to a recent Outkick article, Reese’s mother and the mother of LSU guard Flau’jae Johnson had an online altercation after Reese’s mother changed her attitude and she was benched.

In addition to hinting at issues in the locker room, the coach confronted the media and would not provide information about any specifics regarding Reese. She went so far as to tell a reporter that they had no right to know such information, whatever that may entail.
