After her in-game celebratory gesture during the women’s NCAA Championship Final versus Iowa, LSU’s Angel Reese drew a boatload of criticism. In the waning seconds of LSU’s championship victory, the 6-foot-3 forward let out a celebratory yell. Reese pointed to her ring finger after mimicking WWE star John Cena’s ‘You can’t see me’ sign. Some people criticized this celebration, labeling it “disrespectful” and “classless.” In the midst of all this drama, Samuel L. Jackson has issued a heated response to one of Reese’s detractors, using abusive language.
Reese has maintained that her celebration was an act of empowerment for young women and a message to her detractors. She claimed that she had received criticism all year for being ghetto or ‘hood’, and not fitting in a box. The newly crowned NCAA Most Outstanding Player claimed that she did it so that other women in her position would feel emboldened to stand up for their convictions.
