Has there been a more overhyped, delivered less player at this stage of their careers than Reese?

I know some would suggest Bronny James, but that's more on his surname than what he did at college or the expectations that go with being a pick 55 in the draft

I can't think of any.

I must admit I first heard of Angel Reese when she was following Caitlin Clark around after the championship game a couple of years ago pointing to her finger instead of celebrating with her teammates. Not quite sure why'd you do something like that.

That's about the time I first heard of her also

It just seems so much of the hype around her now is built by her

Trump really is an idiot isn't he - guessing he doesn't understand champagne is region protected:

The name "Champagne" is legally protected, meaning it can only be used for sparkling wine produced in the Champagne region of France, and this protection is enforced by the CIVC (Comité Interprofessionnel du Vin de Champagne)

He's not this stupid, surely. Or is he? It's hard to tell.
