Reese first caught the fascination of rapper Megan Thee Stallion early in the WNBA season. The rapper even brought Reese on the stage with her in the first month of the season when Stallion held a concert in Chicago.
Stallion also brought on stage Reese’s Sky teammates Michaela Onyenwere, Isabelle Harrison, Diamond DeShields and Dana Evans during a performance of “Pop It” on the Chicago leg of her Hot Girl Summer Tour.
The rapper said in an interview that she tries to emulate Reese when she plays a little basketball game for herself in her studio.
“There’s a goal in the back and sometimes I go back there, and I’ll be messing around. This is so random, but I be thinking I’m really Angel Reese when I be back there,” Megan Thee Stallion said in a show hosted by Shannon Sharpe.
Meanwhile, SZA has shared how much she wants to see Reese play after tying the WNBA record for consecutive double-doubles.
“Go crazy! I gotta see her play,” SZA wrote in her Instagram story.

Reese invited the four-time Grammy award-winning singer to watch a game live in Chicago.
Angel Reese wishes to bring Chicago legend Michael Jordan to a Sky game
There are few bigger stars in the sporting world than Michael Jordan. Understandably, the Chicago legend is one of the stars Angel Reese wants to watch her play.
In an interview with ESPN’s Malika Andrews, Reese named Jordan along with Stallion, and another artist who she wants to attend a Sky game in Chicago.
“Okay I’m gonna say Michael Jordan, Beyonce and Megan Thee Stallion. She gonna come soon, that’s my girl,” Reese said.
Jordan is a Chicago legend who gave the city six NBA championships in the 1990s with the Bulls. The city has never sniffed the NBA finals since and is hoping to see the Sky break the dry spell in the WNBA with Reese as the centerpiece.
Reese is on a historic consecutive double-double run, which is now 14. She’s averaging 14.1 points and 11.9 rebounds for the Sky.
