Ice Cube Reveals Why Big3 Offered Caitlin Clark and Not Angel Reese originally appeared on Athlon Sports. During Caitlin Clark's final NCAA Tournament run with the Iowa Hawkeyes in 2024, BIG3 co-founder Ice Cube confirmed on social media that he had offered her a $5 million contract to join the league.

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.
