Angel Reese has had an eventful offseason so far after finishing her second year in the pros. The WNBA star, who averaged 14.7 points and 12.6 rebounds in the 2025 season, joined Team USA last March and helped the squad sweep the FIBA Women's World Cup Qualifying Tournament.

She has kept herself busy ever since, even becoming the first female athlete ever to appear on the cover of Vogue wearing her signature shoe.

Just recently, Reese was also involved in the biggest story in the WNBA. The Chicago Sky traded her to the Atlanta Dream in exchange for two first-round picks in 2027 and 2028.

A day after she was dealt to the Dream, though, Reese continued her projects off the court. On Tuesday, she went to New York for the launch of her Victoria's Secret campaign, making her the first WNBA player to achieve such a feat.

On Instagram, Reese made a post about the event, drawing plenty of reactions. Naturally, one of the people to show support for Reese was her boyfriend, NBA center Wendell Carter Jr.

"Calm down twin," the Orlando Magic player wrote, clearly loving Reese's campaign and look for the launch.

Reese, for her part, showed her appreciation for Carter by replying to his comment and saying, "luva."

Reese and Carter have never publicly confirmed their relationship, but they have been dropping hints that they are dating since last year. Reese has a necklace that features the initials of Carter, "WCJ."

The now-Dream forward has also attended Magic games frequently throughout the 2025-26 season and posted about Carter's highlights.

Considering how supportive Carter has been, it won't be surprising to see him attend Atlanta games once the new WNBA season kicks off in May.
