Remember the 2023 NCAA Women’s Basketball Championship when the LSU Tigers went head-to-head with Caitlin Clark’s Iowa Hawkeyes? While LSU’s 102-85 victory was impressive, the game wasn’t just about the final score. It was all about the rivalry between Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark.

The game marked a turning point, especially when Reese made a statement that would go down in history. Right in front of Clark, she pointed to her finger, signaling where her championship ring would soon be placed. That moment really set the stage for the ongoing clash between the two basketball stars. But have you ever wondered where all that trash-talking comes from? It’s something she learned from Julian Reese.

In a lighthearted moment, Angel’s younger brother, took to social media to reveal a fun tidbit. When asked, “Who’s the better trash talker?” Julian couldn’t help but laugh and admit, “I think her now.” He then recalled how, back in the day, he used to be the one who talked more trash.

“It used to be me to her. Like, I used to talk a lot of trash; that’s where she got it from.” So, there you have it—Angel’s fiery competitiveness and trash-talking skills come straight from the sibling rivalry they’ve had since childhood. When asked if he taught Angel how to trash talk, Julian humbly replied, “I would say I influenced her.”

It’s clear that their sibling rivalry has played a major role in shaping Angel’s bold, competitive spirit. But Julian didn’t stop there—he kept things fun and lighthearted with some playful remarks. He jokingly claimed that it wasn’t just Angel’s moves that made her TikToks go viral but his presence in the videos. “Everybody wants her brother,” he added, giving his own contribution to the viral moments.

This isn’t the first time that the bond between the two is on full display.

Despite rivalry, Juju and Angel Reese have an unbreakable bond!

A couple of days ago, Angel shared a TikTok video with Julian where they danced to Surf Curse’s catchy tune “Disco.” Angel captioned the video, “my not so little brother,” highlighting how quickly her younger sibling has grown. Their relationship has always been built on support and fun competition, pushing each other to reach new heights.

Growing up in Baltimore, the Reese siblings always had that sense of friendly competition. From their early days at Saint Frances Academy to their current paths—Julian now at Maryland and Angel dominating for the Chicago Sky—their journey has been impressive.

“We have played one-on-one here and there, like a little bit outside our driveway,” Julian shared, proving that the sibling rivalry has been there from the very beginning. Despite the challenges they’ve faced, Angel and Julian continue to support each other every step of the way.

Even when it comes to Angel’s growing social media presence. Now, with Julian making these hilarious remarks about the videos, the big question is: How will Angel respond? Will she have something to say to her brother’s playful answers?
