Episode Synopsis

Angel Reese Biography Flash a weekly Biography.This week Angel Reese is everywhere again—on the court, online, and in headlines. The Chicago Sky forward just made news by officially trademarking her own name, Angel Reese, with filings indicating the brand will soon appear on basketballs and sporting goods. According to Front Office Sports, this is her fourth trademark move through her Maryland-based company, and comes after her “mebounds” slogan turned into a viral merch success. Business-savvy at just 23, Reese is building her own sports and lifestyle empire.Meanwhile, she’s also at the center of major social media buzz. This past Friday, she went viral reflecting on her accomplishments in a tweet, listing herself not only as a hooper, but as a model, actress, podcaster, entrepreneur, business owner, and even a homeowner. But the real fireworks on social came from her response to yet another round of fake quotes being spread in her name. Websites and viral accounts keep attributing made-up commentary to the WNBA star, ranging from salary gripes to supposed CBA negotiations stances. Tired of watching the internet run wild with misinformation, Reese shot back online, warning fans, "Rent really be DUE. Can't believe everything you read," and pushing back on the campaign of trolls and “fake news,” as reported by Sportskeeda and Marca.Off-court, Angel made history by strutting the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show runway. The move turned heads across the league and social media, cementing Reese as the first pro athlete to ever do so for the iconic brand. Some WNBA insiders criticized the bold fashion pivot, but Minnesota Lynx’s DiJonai Carrington publicly praised Reese’s trailblazing, calling it a risk that opens broader dreams for young women athletes. Reese herself reveled in her new “It Girl” status online, making clear her ambition is bigger than basketball.In basketball news, speculation swirls after Reese opted out of the upcoming Unrivaled pro league season. Analysts like Rachel DeMita speculated on Courtside Club that Reese’s contentious exit—after being the only player ejected last season, partly due to officiating frustrations—could be a factor. However, other reports suggest the decision may also involve her off-court commitments and recovery from a persistent back injury during the long WNBA season.Much about Angel Reese these days is about setting her own narrative amid a noisy world—whether battling misinformation or expanding her influence far beyond the game.
