Angel Reese Makes Request Before Indiana Fever Game

Originally posted on Athlon Sports | Last updated Jun 5, 2025 12:16 AM ET

Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese is in her second WNBA season. An All-Star in her rookie campaign, Reese averaged 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds. She finished second in Rookie of the Year voting to Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark, receiving one of the 67 total votes.

Reese's numbers have been down so far this season. Through six games, the former LSU star has averaged 10.0 points and 12.3 rebounds. Her field goal percentage has also gone from 39.1% last season to 31.1% so far this year.

Currently riding a modest two-game winning streak, both of which came against the Dallas Wings, the Sky are preparing to host Indiana on Saturday.

Indiana blew out Chicago on opening weekend, securing a 93-58 win behind Clark's triple-double. Saturday's game will not be another chapter of the Clark-Reese battle, as Indiana's star sophomore is sidelined with a quad injury.

Ahead of this contest, Reese made a post on X that could possibly be related to her next game day outfit. Expressing frustration over "heel brands" often cutting off their sizes at nine, Reese requested a few bigger sizes.

"let’s normalize for the heel brands to stop ending at a size 9 and give us them 11s, 12s, and 13s pleaseeeee," she wrote.

In a November, 2024 episode of her Unapologetically Angel podcast, Reese told Funny Marco she wears a size 10.5 shoe. With this being the case, she obviously cannot find her size in heel brands that stop producing their shoes at a size nine.
