Angel Reese is midway through her third season in the WNBA. The former LSU women's basketball star continues to shine as one of the best young players in the game, despite dealing with an injury in 2026.
The Chicago Sky selected Reese at No. 7 overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft following two standout seasons in Baton Rouge. She spent the next two seasons in Chicago, leading the league in rebounds in 2024 and 2025. The Sky traded her to the Atlanta Dream ahead of the 2026 season.
As part of a young core, Reese leads the frontcourt change. But the Dream needed to play without the six-foot-four forward for two games in July. Reese suffered a left knee injury but played through it for the most part. She made an appearance in her third All-Star game, playing for nine minutes off the bench.
Reese drives the Dream on the interior. Her health status will be critical to a team that's holding onto the No. 5 spot in the WNBA standings. Nevertheless, her numbers rank among the best in the league.
15.8 points per game (No. 18)
