The stardom of Angel Reese began in college when she was still playing for the LSU Tigers. She spent two seasons there before being drafted in the WNBA as the seventh-overall pick of the Chicago Sky.
She had a considerable fanbase in LSU, and it only expanded when she stepped into the professional league. However, it seems like some fans are yet to forget her spectacular time in college basketball.
One young fan expressed her admiration for Reese on X by imitating her basketball idol. The young fan dressed up as Angel Reese in her LSU days, wearing a headband and one-legged compression stocking and imitating some of her iconic college basketball moments, including the “too small” and the “you can’t see me,” popularized by wrestler/actor John Cena.

Reese rose to prominence in 2023, when she led LSU to win the NCAA championship that year. She was also named the NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player that season.
Angel Reese rates her first Korean facial treatment
Aside from her feats on the basketball court, Angel Reese is also known for her appreciation for beauty and fashion. She has been seen attending public events, dressed to impress, like that one night in Brooklyn when the Victoria’s Secret fashion show was held.
Last Saturday, the Chicago Sky star posted a picture on her Instagram story after experiencing Korean facial treatment for the first time. She said it was perfect.
“I love getting facials! Got my first Korean facial today & it was a 10/10,” Reese said in her caption.
The Chi”-Town Barbie” is currently enjoying her offseason after a phenomenal rookie season. She broke several rebounding records in just her first year playing professionally, and was one of the frontrunners for the Rookie of the Year award, which eventually went to her proverbial rival, Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark.
Reese’s rookie season ended prematurely after a wrist injury she suffered in her 34th game. She averaged 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds before the season-ending injury. She is currently rehabbing her wrist in preparation for her Unrivaled league debut in January next year.
Aside from attending social events during the offseason, she had also started a podcast, “Unapologetically Angel,” where she speaks her thoughts on certain topics. She recently had NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal on her show.
