WNBA All-Star forward Angel Reese donned a glamorous outfit ahead of her debut at the 3-on-3 Unrivaled Basketball League on Friday at the Wayfair Arena in Miami, Florida.
The Chicago Sky player came in with what she described as a combination of items from some of the top global fashion brands. Her outfit included items from Gucci, Chanel and Hermes. She complemented it with diamond-studded accessories.
One of the WNBA players known for their keen fashion sense, Angel Reese recently graced the cover of Vogue magazine solo, making history as the first professional basketball player to do so. It was something she was truly proud of as she said it captured her lifelong passion for both basketball and fashion.
Reese is set to see action on the first day of the inaugural season of Unrivaled, with her Rose Basketball Club taking on Vinyl Basketball Club.
At Rose BC, the former LSU standout is joined by fellow WNBA stars Chelsea Gray (Las Vegas Aces), Brittney Sykes (Washington Mystics), Kahleah Copper (Phoenix Mercury), Azura Stevens (LA Sparks) and Lexie Hull (Indiana Fever).
Vinyl, meanwhile, is composed of Aliyah Boston (Fever), Rae Burrell (Sparks), Jordin Canada (Atlanta Dream), Dearica Hamby (Sparks), Rhyne Howard (Dream) and Arike Ogunbowale (Dallas Wings). The team is coached by Teresa Weatherspoon, who was Reese’s Sky coach but was fired after just one season in Chicago.
Angel Reese comes into Unrivaled off an impressive WNBA rookie season, where she averaged a double-double of 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds.
Angel Reese high on future of Unrivaled
Angel Reese is excited to be part of the newly formed 3-on-3 league. During media day on Thursday, she highlighted that the league has gained a positive response from the players.
“It’s gonna be hard to get in here. And luckily, I was able to be part of the inaugural season… They’ve done a great job already in year one, but years down [the line], it’s going to be amazing.”
Unrivaled was co-founded by WNBA stars Breanna Stewart (New York) and Napheesa Collier (Minnesota) to provide a viable alternative for players to showcase their abilities on the court and earn good money.
Its inaugural season will run until March 17. The league features 36 WNBA players spread across six teams: Rose BC, Mist BC, Lunar Owls BC, Laces BC, Phantom BC and Vinyl BC.
