WNBA superstar Angel Reese denied that she was flirting with Funny Marco on her podcast as she shut down the YouTubers claim with a brutal response.
The Chicago Sky power forward is enjoying a well-earned break from basketball following a successful maiden professional campaign. During a record-breaking first season in Illinois, the No. 7 overall draft pick delivered on her billing as she went on to be named as a WNBA All-Star.
Aside from commitments with the Sky, the 22-year-old has also launched a successful podcasting career, with Funny Marco the latest guest on her Unapologetically Angel series. During an amusing conversation between the pair on the latest episode, they discussed a variety of topics including an exchange about clickbait.
In a memorable moment during the show, Reese predicted that their chat would drum up interest on social media, saying: Ill put on the podcast right here, Oh yeah, Angel and Funny Marco were flirting with each other. People are going to click on that to which Marco replied: You are flirting with me.
He continued: You say you like taller dudes as the host then brutally fired back as she admitted that the influencer was simply too short for her to consider him as a romantic interest, as she revealed: I dont do short kings. Sorry.
Despite this awkward moment in proceedings, the pair appeared to be enjoying the conversation, as Funny Marco also predicted what the WNBA ace would be like in a relationship. He said: Its cause you tall as -, you dont know how to be submissive. So we can actually try to get you somebody.
