    Apr 6, 2023

LSU's Angel Reese pointed symbolically to her soon-to-be-adorned ring finger and, separately, mimicked Iowa star Caitlin Clark's "you can't see me" gesture from a previous game. It was the sort of bravado and trash-talking that some might be unaccustomed to seeing in women's sports. Add in...
