Comedian Katt Williams has never been one to bite his tongue, but no one expected him to come for Angel Reese\u2014especially after her historic appearance on the NBA 2K cover. During a surprise stand-up set, Katt delivered a scathing line that left the room frozen: \u201cThey put her on the cover like she Kobe\u2014but she ain\u2019t even Diana Taurasi.\u201d The comment instantly went viral, setting off a firestorm of reactions from fans and athletes alike. Is this just Katt being Katt, or did he just ignite a feud no one saw coming?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Catch the full breakdown of the backlash, the fallout, and how Reese is responding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comedian Katt Williams took an unprovoked swipe at Angel Reese during a recent podcast appearance, poking fun at the WNBA sophomore over her penchant for missed layups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Williams, who stirred the pot on Shannon Sharpe\u2019s \u2018Club Shay Shay\u2019 last year by calling damn near every other comedian out, was a guest on Carmelo Anthony\u2019s \u20187PM in Brooklyn\u2019 podcast this week. This time, the interview wasn\u2019t nearly as explosive, but he did take a jab at Reese while admitting his own limitations on the court, given his diminutive stature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m 5\u20195, so I don\u2019t have any above-the-rim experience,\u201d Katt confessed. \u201cBut I\u2019m not Angel Reese \u2014 I\u2019m 99% on my layups because I can\u2019t afford to miss them. My layup is my dunk.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Angel Reese Might Have A Hard Time Making Money Off Katt Williams\u2019 Shot<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reese has received much criticism because of her reputation for missing shots in the post and her knack for snagging rebounds, many of which come off her own missed shots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latter prompted the \u201cMebounds\u201d joke, which she has since turned into a brand, trademarking the phrase and putting out merchandise. She\u2019s followed that up with another massive achievement, having made the cover of the WNBA Edition of \u2018NBA 2K26.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the table-turning W, it\u2019s hard to see how she\u2019s going to parlay Katt Williams\u2019 joke into cold hard cash, although \u201cAbove-The-Rim Experience\u201d seems like a good place to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She\u2019s just going to have to dunk first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
