LSU women’s basketball star Angel Reese made a bold move by declaring for the WNBA Draft just two days after the Tigers were eliminated from the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament. Reese, who revealed her decision in an interview and fashion shoot with Vogue, expressed her readiness to take her game to the next level.
“I’ve done everything I wanted to in college,” Reese said. “My ultimate goal is to be a pro – and to be one of the greatest basketball players to play, ever. I feel like I’m ready.”
Reese’s collegiate journey started at Maryland, where she made a name for herself before transferring to LSU. In her time with the Tigers, she quickly became a standout player, averaging impressive numbers and leading the team to a national championship.
Despite missing a few games this season, Reese continued to shine on the court, nearly repeating as national champions. Her viral fame from last year’s championship game against Iowa helped her land lucrative NIL deals, showcasing her growing influence in the basketball world.
Now, Reese is set to embark on a new chapter in her career as she prepares to enter the WNBA Draft and take on the challenge of competing at the professional level. With her talent, determination, and drive to be one of the best, Reese is poised to make a significant impact in the WNBA and continue her journey towards basketball greatness.
