Angel Reese Got Honest About Handling Hectic Weekend Schedule: “I’m Running on Vibes”
After the glamorous night at the 2025 Met Gala, Angel Reese wasted no time returning to basketball, landing back in Chicago at 2 a.m. on Tuesday morning to prepare for the Sky’s next preseason game against the Minnesota Lynx.
Despite running on minimal sleep, Reese made it to shootaround at 10 a.m. In an interview, Reese detailed her experience juggling two sides of her career, and how this made her “run on vibes.”
“I don’t know how I’m doing this,” she said during the interview. “I’m running on vibes. I think I can operate on four hours’ sleep, so I was good there.”
“I’ve been going since playing at LSU, I had my birthday party Saturday, I left on Sunday for the Met Gala, had that yesterday, and got back at two o’clock this morning. Trying to maximize everything. I know tomorrow… I’m looking forward to my off day so nobody call!”
