The Sky star is widely considered one of the best forwards in the WNBA, despite being early into her career. She began the season on a strong note but has since been rehabbing.
During her rehab, Reese took some time away from basketball and focused on the Chicago community.

“A true Angel,” posted the official social media account of the Chicago Sky. “Angel’s Back-to-School Bash at Intentional Sports was a success! she gave over 2000 backpacks filled with school supplies to the community, on Chicago’s West Side.”
