Angel Reese's Ex-Boyfriend Sends Bold Message About Flirting on Thursday

Angel Reese's Ex-Boyfriend Sends Bold Message About Flirting on Thursday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Cam'Ron Fletcher is back in the spotlight — and this time, it's not for his game. The former Florida State basketball player, best known in the sports world for his past high-profile relationship with WNBA star Angel Reese, caught attention Thursday after posting a personal Instagram Story that left people talking. Advertisement It's been almost two years since Fletcher and Reese began dating publicly in June 2023, and more than a year since Reese confirmed their split during an Instagram Live in March 2024. Though the breakup wasn't deeply explained, Reese alluded to a rough ending, saying she had 'put (her) energy into too many people that don't deserve (it).' Now, Fletcher seems to be reflecting. In a story posted to his Instagram, he shared a message that alluded to recent emotional struggles and hesitations around dating. It wasn't subtle — and for many, it felt like a window into his state of mind post-breakup. Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese and Phoenix Mercury forward Alyssa Scuteri-Imagn Images 'I be flirting with y'all queens but my anxiety been too damn high lately to link & act like I'm fake interested,' he wrote. Advertisement Reese, meanwhile, has stayed fully focused on the court. The Chicago Sky forward is in her second WNBA season and helping her team ride a two-game win streak. With Caitlin Clark sidelined for the Indiana Fever due to a quad injury, Reese will be one of the biggest names on the floor when the two teams face off Saturday. Outside basketball, Reese is making waves with her Reebok partnership. While she doesn't yet have her own signature sneaker, that's expected to change soon. Early previews of her upcoming basketball shoe have already surfaced, with an official launch anticipated in 2026. Once it is released, Reese will join an elite group of WNBA players with a signature line — cementing her influence both on and off the court. Advertisement Whether Fletcher's message was meant to get something off his chest or say something more, one thing is clear: Angel Reese isn't looking back.

Botswana's diamond giant slashes output as demand falls

Botswana's main diamond company has paused production at some of its mines, citing a prolonged downturn in global demand. Debswana, a joint venture between the government and global mining giant De Beers, saw its sales revenue drop by almost 50% last year. Botswana is the world's largest producer of diamonds by value. The industry accounts for a quarter of the country's total annual income (GDP), according to the International Monetary Fund. On Friday, Debswana said production this year is being scaled back to 15 million carats - approximately a 40% decrease from its output in 2023. The company, which accounts for around 90% of Botswana's diamond sales expects this reduced output will lead to "significant cost savings" across areas like fuel and electricity. In a statement, Debswana said it continued to "prudently navigate the challenging market conditions" citing low demand and "emerging pressures such as US-imposed tariffs". The global market for mined diamonds has been experiencing a decline since 2023, partly due to the availability of lab-grown alternatives. In response to this downturn, Debswana paused production at its flagship Jwaneng mine, as well as its Orapa mines, last month. Each mine will be closed for three months in total. The southern African country has for decades been trying to shift its economy away from being dependent on diamond sales, to varying degrees of success. Although successive governments have boosted sectors such as tourism, finance and the mining of minerals such as copper, diamond sales still make up three-quarters of Botswana's foreign exchange earnings. This income is likely to be hit by Debswana's decision to temporarily close its mines. The company has stressed that no involuntary job cuts are planned, although it continues to offer voluntary redundancy. As a result of the sustained downturn in the global diamond industry, Botswana will cut its 2025 economic growth forecast to almost zero, a senior finance official was quoted as saying by the Reuters news agency.
