WNBA Fans found themselves in another chaotic timeline debate after a “would you rather” post spiraled into a looks-based argument involving Angel Reese and Sophie Cunningham.
The discussion started when @Matt_Pinner asked, “600k cash right now… or a date with Angel Reese? Be real [smirking face emoji] [fire emoji].”

The post quickly gained traction, pulling in WNBA Fans who treated it less like a real question and more like a setup for jokes.
Things escalated when @tweeterazzis replied with a Sophie Cunningham GIF and wrote that Angel Reese was the “black version of Sophie Cunningham,” adding a line criticizing both her looks and basketball ability.
The reply spread fast, and WNBA Fans immediately split between defending Reese and dragging the whole thread.
Another user jumped in on the Sophie Cunningham side.
@GuilloryGuifred responded to the GIF by saying, “You crazy Cunningham is shaped like a ironing board [face with tears of joy emoji].”
WNBA Fans argued over appearance, confidence, and popularity, with very little focus left on basketball.
What stood out most was how fast the tone shifted. A throwaway “would you rather” became a full thread of body talk, name-calling, and sides being taken.
For WNBA Fans, this wasn’t just about attraction. It reflected how quickly player discussions drift into personal territory online. One post, one GIF, and suddenly two players were being compared on everything except what happens on the court.
By the end of the day, WNBA Fans weren’t debating money or dates anymore. They were reacting to reactions, showing once again how quickly timelines can turn a simple post into a loud, messy spectacle.
WNBA Fans Turn “Would You Rather” Post Into Full Angel Reese Teardown
As the thread kept spreading, WNBA Fans noticed that the conversation had shifted almost entirely toward tearing down Angel Reese rather than debating the original question.
@WTFPoiizen retweeted the post and wrote, “Can do a lot with 600k yall need to stop with these hypotheticals like people ain’t choosing 600k ill take 5k over Angel Reese.” That response summed up what many WNBA Fans were already seeing in the replies: most people weren’t entertaining the date option at all.

More posts followed with the same tone.
@freeman103101 added, “I wouldn’t hit that for free [face with tears of joy emoji].” The reply was heavily shared, with WNBA Fans calling it part of a growing “would rather not” pile-on under the original tweet.
Another comment pushed things even further.
@matthew_we98092 wrote, “I’d pay 5k for her to shut the [explicit word] up,” before adding a cartoon comparison and another insult about her play. That message drew strong reactions from WNBA Fans, with some agreeing and many others saying the thread had gone too far.
Across the retweets, WNBA Fans weren’t debating beauty anymore. They were reacting to how aggressive and personal the replies had become.
Some WNBA Fans tried to steer the conversation back, saying the whole post was bait. Others pointed out that these types of hypotheticals almost always end the same way, with jokes turning into open shots at players.
What tied the replies together was volume. Hundreds of WNBA Fans were now interacting with the thread, not because of the original question, but because of how extreme the reactions became.
By the end, WNBA Fans had effectively turned a casual post into a full teardown. And like many viral debates, it said less about the question and more about how quickly timelines reward the loudest responses.
