18.8 PPG (5th)
12.8 RPG (1st)
55.6% FG (4th)"

Recently, Basketball Hall of Famer Dwyane Wade spoke about Reese (via Wy Network by Dwyane Wade).

Wade: "Angel Reese is hooping, dawg! Her game is opening up. Her bag is opening up. Her confidence is getting even higher. She in that bag now. She's playing the game like a more aggressive Draymond Green."

Many people commented on Wade's clip.

@Ankhzed: "Like I said before DWade that's cool and all that you recognize it, but go get 5 some real help!!!"

@CoachT352: "Shoulda Seen Her At Maryland And HS"

@Offmotio: "It’s true she’s the Face of women’s basketball right now like it or not"

Despite Reese's strong play, the Sky are the 11th seed with a 7-15 record.

They are also coming off a year where they missed the 2024 WNBA playoffs.

15+ PTS
15+ REB
5+ AST"

As for Wade, he played 16 NBA seasons for the Miami Heat, Cleveland Cavaliers and Chicago Bulls.
