Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese draws criticism for stat-padding in “NBA 2K25” after a video shows her repeatedly missing layups and grabbing rebounds. Fans call the clip a “realistic” reflection of her play.
BollywoodFever: Chicago Sky rookie forward Angel Reese, who faced accusations of stat-padding throughout her debut season, is now dealing with similar critiques in the virtual realm.
A recent clip from the “NBA 2K25” video game posted by X user @2KIntel shows Reese missing layups, grabbing her own rebounds, and taking additional shots — echoing accusations from her real-world play.
Fans quickly seized the opportunity to mock the gameplay, drawing parallels between the video and Reese’s on-court style.
The clip also featured Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark knocking down 3-pointer after 3-pointer, further amplifying the comparison between the two players.
“This is actually maybe the most accurate video game I’ve ever seen,” one fan commented. Others joined in, with one user remarking, “Finally a 2K game that’s realistic,” and another adding, “This real life game footage.”
Reese, who boasts a 90 overall rating in NBA 2K25, has been a standout player but hasn’t escaped criticism for her approach to the game, with some accusing her of inflating her stats.
Released on September 6, NBA 2K25 appears to have captured this aspect of Reese’s play — much to the amusement of fans online.
