Angel Reese has seen a surge in wealth and popularity off the court, but she's still ready to get down to business on the court this season.
Angel Reese is adjusting to the idea that celebrities she’s long wanted to meet are also eager to have an audience with her — and to thank the charismatic"I don’t know the limit on who I can meet," Reese said, smiling as she recalls recent encounters with musical artists Jay-Z and Beyonce; former boxing champion Floyd Mayweather Jr.; and retiredstar Dennis Rodman."The roles have kind of flipped.
The skyrocketing trajectory of Reese’s profile since last spring made her Hall of Fame coach, Kim Mulkey, wonder whether her 21-year-old, front-court superstar would remain as motivated on the court as she was when she first arrived as a transfer from Maryland a little more than a year ago. While some of Reese’s on-court behaviors aren’t always popular with fans of opposing teams, they were an attraction to Van Lith.
Reese was parodied on"Saturday Night Live" because of the way she pointed at her ring finger and mimicked one of Clark’s celebrations as LSU closed out its title game victory. She also drew criticism for initially objecting to First Lady Jill Biden’s comment that both LSU and Iowa should be invited to the White House.
Reese even expressed hope that she and Clark can be teammates one day, be it as professionals or on Team USA. Likewise, Clark has declined to criticize Reese and says she respects her as a competitor.
