Currently, the Detroit Pistons do not have a WNBA team, unlike other NBA cities. Despite this, a promising young WNBA player was recently spotted showing support for the team.
This WNBA season has seen a few standout rookie players, with Caitlin Clark garnering much attention. Angel Reese, another impressive rookie, has also made a strong start to her professional career.
After winning a championship at LSU, Reese was drafted seventh overall by the Chicago Sky. Her stellar performance, including a historic double-double streak, has put her in the running for Rookie of the Year alongside Clark.
In addition to her on-court success, Reese has a strong presence on social media. A recent video she posted wearing a Pistons hoodie has caught the attention of Detroit fans.

Before the WNBA break, Reese was one of two rookies to receive All-Star honors, the other being Clark. She has been impressive in her first 27 games, averaging 13.6 PPG, 12.3 RPG, and 1.7 APG.
While Reese has been seen wearing Pistons gear, the nature of her relationship with Duren has not been confirmed.
