Ice Cube offered Caitlin Clark the opportunity to play for his BIG3 basketball league before she joined the WNBA in 2024, but that same lucrative $5 million proposal won't be extend to Angel Reese.

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.

When Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese were coming out of school, hip-hop legend and BIG3 founder Ice Cube extended a $5 million contract offer to the former Iowa star to be the first female athlete in his upstart 3-on-3 league — but the same wasn't offered to Reese.
