BREAKING — Angel Reese Drops a Flirty, Viral Comeback to Kahleah Copper… and WNBA Fans Lost Their Minds
Now that the WNBA has slipped into offseason mode — that chaotic stretch where players seem to do everything except play basketball — the league’s biggest personalities are filling the silence with fashion shows, golf tournaments, movie roles, and, of course, social media fireworks. And Angel Reese just ignited one of the funniest, most unexpected moments of the break.
While some stars, including Caitlin Clark, keep busy with charity golf tournaments — complete with her iconic “Las Tres Leches” trio Lexie Hull and Sophie Cunningham serving as caddies — others are exploring entirely new worlds. Angel Reese has jumped headfirst into the fashion spotlight, turning heads globally with her bold, confident runway walk in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Her performance was described as “shockingly polished,” with fans and critics stunned by how seamlessly she crossed over into modeling.
But when she’s not dominating runways or red carpets, Reese is stirring the pot online — and this time, she did it with a single sentence.
Kahleah Copper started it. Angel Reese finished it.
Phoenix Mercury guard Kahleah Copper took to X on Sunday, firing off a relatable joke about household responsibilities — the kind that instantly resonates with anyone who has ever stared at an overflowing trash bin.
“Sunday’s remind me that I need a man… trash day tomorrow smh.”
— Kahleah Copper
It was casual, funny, and harmless. But then Angel Reese stepped in.
And the internet exploded.
Reese replied with a message that was equal parts playful, clever, and just vague enough to leave fans spiraling into theories:
“You can always come back to this side.”
— Angel Reese
Within minutes, Copper shot back with a laughing reaction:
“Ayoooooooooo”
— Kahleah Copper
And that was it — the moment went viral instantly.
The back-and-forth showcased exactly what fans love about the WNBA’s new era: stars who aren’t afraid to show personality, humor, and charisma outside of the 94-foot court. Even as competitors, Reese and Copper’s quick wit showed the genuine friendship and connection many players maintain behind the scenes.
Engagement numbers confirmed the moment’s impact. Each post racked up hundreds of thousands of views, with some surpassing one million impressions before the day ended. Offseason or not, the WNBA’s social media energy remains unmatched.
Meanwhile, Reese continues to cement herself as one of the league’s most magnetic figures. Whether she’s averaging double-doubles for the Chicago Sky, walking a Victoria’s Secret runway, or dropping viral gems on X, she keeps proving she can dominate culture just as effortlessly as basketball.
For now, players like Copper, Clark, and Reese will continue enjoying their vacations — golfing, modeling, relaxing, and occasionally setting the internet on fire with a single sentence.
And if this playful exchange is any indication, the offseason might end up being even more entertaining than the season itself.
