Angel Reese's Honest Confession About 'Scary' Career Decision
Today at 09:59 PM
Even before Chicago Sky star Angel Reese turned pro, she was already a bona fide star. In her first season with LSU, the 6-foot-3 forward led the Lady Tigers to their first-ever national championship, bagging the Most Outstanding Player award in the process.
By her own admission, however, Reese wasn't at her happiest state while she was at Baton Rouge. Speaking on a recent episode of her "Unapologetically Angel" podcast, the 22-year-old revealed that she actually went through some tough times while at LSU.
"Getting up and transferring, it's scary," Reese said of her move from Maryland to LSU in 2022. "But I won a national championship from it. So I was like, 'I got something out of it.'
"It wasn't a perfect situation. Every day I didn't come to practice like, 'Yeah, I love being here.' But at the end of the day, I got what I wanted out of it. Now I look back and I love LSU."
Reese made her confession as she dropped some advice for her guest Mikey Williams, who himself made the move from Memphis to UCF during the offseason. According to Reese, the transition wasn't easy for her, but at this point in her life, she is able to look back at her college experience fondly.
Reese is currently with the Sky in the WNBA, where she is coming off a remarkable rookie campaign. In 34 games played before her season-ending wrist injury, the All-Star forward put up averages of 13.6 points, a league-best 13.1 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 32.5 minutes per contest.
