There is a WNBA game between the Chicago Sky and the Indiana Fever. Angel Reese gets a foul when she tries to block Caitlin Clark.

Many people talk about this foul online. Some believe that players do not like Caitlin Clark. Reese is unhappy with the referees. She says that they are not fair. A sports expert says that the game is always tough, and such games are more fun to watch.

Women’s basketball is strong and exciting. It is as tough as men’s basketball. More people are watching it now because of players like Reese and Clark. The expert says that we should enjoy these games and support the players.

Difficult words: foul (a move in sports which breaks a rule), referee (a person who watches if players follow the rules in sports), support (to be actively interested in something or someone).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What are some reasons why more people are watching women's basketball now and what advice does the sports expert give about these games?
