Angel Reese

Angel Alyssa Reese is an American professional basketball player who plays for the Chicago Sky of the WNBA. Born in Randallstown, Maryland, Reese became one of the most dominant and talked-about players in college basketball during her time at LSU, where she led the Tigers to a national championship in 2023.

Reese’s championship victory at LSU, under coach Kim Mulkey, was a watershed moment for women’s basketball. Her confident celebrations and the You Can’t See Me gesture directed at Caitlin Clark during the title game created one of the most memorable rivalries in women’s sports history, drawing unprecedented media attention and fan engagement to the game.

After being drafted seventh overall by the Chicago Sky in the 2024 WNBA Draft, Reese made an immediate impact, setting a WNBA record for consecutive double-doubles and earning All-Star selection in her rookie season. Her rebounding dominance and physical style of play translated immediately to the professional level, making her one of the league’s most exciting young players.

Off the court, Reese has become a major brand ambassador and social media personality. Her charismatic personality and fashion sense have attracted endorsement deals with brands like Reebok, Amazon, and Beats by Dre. She has also launched her own media ventures and has become an influential voice for women’s empowerment and representation in sports.
