U.S. Senator Is Demanding 'Apology' From Angel Reese

U.S. Senator Jim Banks publicly demanded that Angel Reese apologize to Indiana Fever fans following a WNBA investigation into racist fan behavior allegations at a May 17 game in Indianapolis.
The WNBA launched a formal 10-day inquiry after Reese accused Fever fans of racial insults, but the review found no evidence supporting those claims.
The league reviewed audio, video, and interviewed fans, staff, and team personnel, concluding that no hateful comments toward Reese occurred at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Banks demanded that Angel Reese apologize to Indiana fans, stating the least she could do is admit she was wrong, though it is uncertain whether Reese will respond.
The controversy highlights ongoing tensions regarding accountability in the WNBA, while Reese faces criticism over both the allegations and her current shooting struggles in her second pro season.
