Ever since making it to the WNBA, Reese hasn't stopped working and continues to venture into various areas, including fashion and podcasting. The Sky forward has been spotted in various fashion events, such as the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show and CFDA Fashion Awards in October. Her show "Unapologetically Angel," which debuted in September, is still ongoing.

Of course becoming a billionaire is easier said than done. In the NBA, the only active player to reach that status is LeBron James. Overall, James, Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and Junior Bridgeman are the only basketball players to become a billionaire, per Forbes.
Reese, for her part, reportedly has a net worth of $2 million. However, she previously said that the estimate about her net worth is "way off."
At 22 years old and as one of the most popular female hoopers today, though, Reese has plenty of opportunities to accumulate wealth.
