Angel Reese Makes Announcement Before Fever-Sky Rematch

Angel Reese Makes Announcement Before Fever-Sky Rematch originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky have been off to a rough start in the 2025 WNBA season, beginning with four straight losses and finally picking up two wins, albeit against the Dallas Wings, who have been the worst team in the league. 

Reese herself has had her struggles, too, as she has seen a dip in scoring, down to 10.0 points per game, while her shooting has dropped to 31.1% from the field. As a rookie, she shot 39.1% and averaged 13.6 points.

Reese’s turnover numbers have also jumped to 3.8 per game, from 2.2 last year. 

But Reese continues to make moves off the floor, and is getting closer to a major new accomplishment–the release of her own shoe.

On Saturday, before the Sky played the Fever at in Chicago–at the United Center, no less–Reese stopped by the new CBS Sports pregame show. When one of the analysts, legendary coach Dawn Staley, suggested that Reese keep track of wins and losses in her signature shoe, Reese said, “I think we’re gonna win tonight.”

She went on to say that she is not yet wearing her signature shoe, as she showed off the shoes she is wearing for the game, a pair that includes her new Reebok-designed logo. That logo debuted last week. 

But then, Reese announced something that’s been building for a while. “These aren’t my signature shoes,” she said. “My signature shoe is coming soon, though.”

That’s sure to cause some buzz among fans. 

Reese was wearing what Reebok introduced as the “Pretty Gritty” colorway of the Engine A shoes. 

Reese started off 1-for-3 from the field for two points in the first quarter as the Fever led, 21-13, in Chicago.
