Angel Reese, the rising star of the WNBA, has been making waves both on and off the court. While her on-court performance has been undeniably impressive, it’s her off-court antics that have often grabbed the headlines. If not for her style of play, it’s for her style of dress, her off-court statements or her social media posts, but the fact remains that Reese is often on the lips of basketball fans.
Recently, rumors have been swirling about a potential romantic connection between Reese and Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren. According to Page Six, Duren posted a video on his Instagram Stories that appeared to be from a similar location where Reese had posted a picture of herself in a pink Gucci monokini and Chanel shades the day before. And if you pay attention to the pictures, the imagery certainly checks out.
However, until Reese or Duren address the matter directly, it’s impossible to know for sure what’s going on. As the text notes, “where there’s smoke there’s fire,” but it’s also worth remembering that Reese has been linked to other high-profile figures in the past, including a prominent rapper. Even if she and Duren are hooking up, there is no guarantee it is anything more than a fling.
