Reese, who has just completed the impressive rookie season with Chicago Sky and is honored as one of the brightest young talents WNBA, does not disclose his next destination. However, she refers to that tournaments in Europe or Asia are in the sights, where she believes that she will receive more recognition. “I did everything to prove myself, but here, they just looked at me through the prejudice lens,” Reese said, his voice full of disappointment. Many people think that she is referring to the controversy about the style of playing football, appearance, and attention from the media that she faces throughout the year.
The reaction from the basketball community is very multi -dimensional. Some colleagues like A’ja Wilson expressed his support, saying that Rese had the right to find a better environment for his career. In contrast, some of the above comments called this “act of giving up”, saying that leaving WNBA – the world’s top tournament – a step back in her career. Chicago Sky has not made an official comment, but the internal source revealed that the team was very surprised and was trying to convince Reese to stay before she signed a contract with any foreign team.
This incident not only heated up the debate about how female athletes, especially black women, were treated in American sports, but also asked a big question about Reese’s future. Will she shine in a new tournament, or will this decision make her lose the budding glory at WNBA? Fans around the globe are waiting for the next development, and make sure the name Angel Reese will be mentioned a lot in the coming days. A season that has not started full of dramas – can only be basketball!
