Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese will be suiting up alongside Caitlin Clark for a game against Team USA after she was named a WNBA All-Star Tuesday night.
Reese, the seventh pick in the draft, said she found out about the honor following Chicago’s 85-77 victory over the Atlanta Dream. The announcement clearly meant a lot to her, as she wiped away tears before discussing the honor.
“I’m just so happy,” Reese said. “I know the work I put in. Coming into this league so many people doubted me and didn’t think my game would translate and I wouldn’t be the player that I was in college — or better, or would be worse, or wouldn’t be where I am right now. But I trust the process and I believed and I’m thankful that I dropped to (No.) 7 and was able to come to Chicago.
“It’s just a blessing. I can’t thank my teammates or my coaches enough for just believing in me and trusting me. I know all of them are going to come to Phoenix and support me. So, I’m really happy right now.”

Reese fought back further tears throughout her response.
The (often unfairly criticized) 2023 national champion came into Tuesday’s game averaging 13.3 points and 11.4 rebounds and she stuffed the stat sheet again in the win over the Dream. Reese had another double-double with 12 points and a staggering 19 rebounds while dishing out three assists and blocking two shots.
