Angel Reese seemingly took a swipe at fellow WNBA star Caitlin Clark in a since-deleted post on X.

After the Chicago Sky star and her team beat the New York Liberty Thursday, Reese took to social media to celebrate the win — with a little shade.

“and that’s on getting a WIN in a packed area (sic) not just cause of one player on our charter flight. 😘 #SKYTOWN,” she tweeted — and deleted — Thursday night.

Reese’s tweet was seemingly aimed at Clark, whose team, the Indiana Fever, has not been able to score a win this season so far.

The DC Power Football Club part-owner also referenced the league booking charter flights for their teams’ 2024 to 2025 season, which has been credited to Clark’s hype.

However, Reese could have been addressing Charles Barkley’s recent comments, when he said the WNBA player should be “thanking” Clark “for getting y’all ass private charters.”

“All the money and visibility she’s bringing to the WNBA,” the former NBA star said. “What she’s accomplished — give her her flowers. Stop being petty all you women out there … Caitlin Clark, thank you for bringing all that money and shine to the WNBA.”

Page Six has reached out to Clark for comment but did not immediately hear back.

Reese’s tweet also comes after several current and former NBA stars, including LeBron James and Barkley, have worshipped Clark for her impact on women’s basketball despite her team’s losing record.

“Don’t get it twisted! Don’t get it f–ked up,” the Los Angeles Lakers star, 39, said on his “Mind the Game” podcast Thursday.

“Caitlin Clark is the reason why a lot of great things is gonna happen for the WNBA,” he added.

“I’m rooting for Caitlin because I’ve been in that seat before. I’ve walked that road before. I hope she kills!”

The friendly rivalry between Reese and Clark, both 22, first began during their collegiate basketball careers, when they played for Louisiana State University and the University of Iowa, respectively.

She also tapped her ring finger while looking directly at Clark.

Though Reese was criticized as being “classless” for the gesture, which Clark also did during her team’s Elite Eight victory over Louisville, she defended herself against the naysayers.
