The Truth Exposed! Angel Reese’s Recent Money Decisions Exposed Her BLATANT LIE About Financial Difficulty
Reese generates more from sponsorships than from his contract with Chicago
Angel Reese, the 22-year-old WNBAstar for the Chicago Sky, has become a global sensation after a record-breaking rookie season that could have been even better if not for an injury that kept the team out of the playoffs. Like many young athletes, Reese knows how to capitalize on her image through her social media accounts and with brands that sponsor her, such as Reebok and Reese’s chocolate. Given her last name, it was almost inevitable that this Hershey’s sub-brand would partner with her for marketing campaigns. In addition to her athletic accomplishments, she is recognized as a savvy businesswoman. The lifestyle she displays on her social media reflects the luxurious life she enjoys and will likely continue to enjoy for years to come, especially during the off-season, as is the case now.
Critics Question Angel Reese’s Lavish Lifestyle-But Here’s the Truth
Speaking of luxury, Angel Reese made waves when she attended the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix as part of an elite group invited by Formula 1 and its sponsors. During the event, Reese met celebrities such as actor Terry Crews and her favorite actress, Taraji P. Henson. Henson told Reese, “I’m so proud of you. Just keep doing what you’re doing,” acknowledging her youth and the remarkable accomplishments she has already achieved in her career and personal life. Reese’s brand has grown internationally, with major partnerships and media appearances cementing her as one of the most influential athletes of her generation, of course alongside TIME Magazine’s Athlete of the Year, Caitlin Clark.
On social media, critics often claim that Reese mismanages her money, largely due to the lavish lifestyle she shares online. Her contract with the Chicago Sky is for four years and $324,383, which would be enough for most people to live an extraordinary life. However, because of her luxurious tastes, some might think she’s overspending. In reality, most of her travel is paid for by the companies that invite her. It’s also unclear how much these companies pay her for her image, but rest assured, it’s in the millions.
Reese Leads the Rebook Rebrand
Speaking of brand sponsors, Reese signed with Reebok a few months ago to lead the rebrand for President Shaquille O’Neal, who is a close friend of Reese and VP Allen Iverson, who are leading the rebrand. Reese said he had many opportunities to sign with other brands, but chose Reebok and said the following: “What was it about Reebok? One, they don’t have a female basketball player as a face. So I wanted to be that,” Reese said at the time. Once again, she shows that she loves the spotlight, that she knows her game can only get better, and that being the face of a rebrand is not just being another athlete.
The reality is that it is currently very difficult to compete with Nike, which has already signed Caitlin Clark and upcoming WNBA Draft first pickPaige Bueckers. That’s why it seems to me that Reese decided to sign with Reebok, whose contract amount is not yet known, but we’re talking millions here. Reese didn’t want to be just another athlete for some brand and be in the shadow of Clark, who was extremely superior in this first season, not counting the Rookie of the Year award, of course I don’t want to take away from the great season with records Reese had.
The next time we see Reese playing basketball will be in Miami, where she currently lives. Starting in January, Reese will play in the new 3×3 winter basketball league Unrivaled, co-founded by WNBA stars Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier. She will then enter her second season with a new coach in Tyler Marsh. Marsh, who worked with three-time WNBA MVP A’ja Wilson for years, has noted Reese’s physical resemblance to Wilson and insists she will be a cornerstone of the Chicago Sky in the future. This is no surprise, as she led the league in rebounding last season with an incredible 13.1 boards per game, the highest average in WNBA history.
