Big3 founder Ice Cube explains why he is not going to make the same offer to Angel Reese as he did to Caitlin Clark.

Ice Cube, who helped start the BIG3 basketball league, has explained why they didn't give Angel Reese, a WNBA player, a $5 million offer like the one they gave to Caitlin Clark. In a chat with TMZ Sports, Ice Cube said the main reasons were differences in sponsor backing and how much they thought each player would boost the league.

As outspoken as any player in the league, Reese threatened a lockout months ago when advocating for higher player salaries on social media, and nearly two weeks ago she made it clear the players are willing to keep fighting for a bigger piece of the revenue pie.

The BIG3 basketball league and co-founder Ice Cube won't be making an aggressive play to sign Chicago Sky star Angel Reese like it did last year for Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark.

Despite the absences of Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark, the Indiana Fever (14-12) secured a 93-78 victory over the Chicago Sky (7-18) and added a much-needed win. CC's persistent g
