This Thursday marks the release of the fourth episode of Angel Reese’s “Unapologetically Angel” podcast, and this time, the Chicago Sky rookie has upped the ante with a special guest. Reese, known for bringing in high-profile stars from the worlds of music and entertainment, is now turning to a basketball legend for her latest episode, inviting none other than NBA great Dwyane Wade to the show.
Reese, who has already welcomed an impressive lineup of guests in the first three episodes—including Maya Reese, Polo G, Latto, and Mariah the Scientist—continues to show her star power off the court. But with Episode 4, she’s bringing in perhaps her biggest guest yet, especially for basketball fans.
On Sunday, Reese took to her X account (formerly known as Twitter) to break the exciting news. The 22-year-old reposted an update from her upcoming guest, Dwyane Wade, along with a caption that revealed just how thrilled she was about the collaboration.
“DROPPED SOME GEMS FOR EPISODE 4!!” Reese wrote, letting her followers know that this episode is packed with valuable insights, courtesy of the three-time NBA champion.

For those who missed the original post, Wade had shared a behind-the-scenes photo from the podcast recording session, giving fans a sneak peek at what’s to come. The image captured Wade and Reese in deep conversation, setting the stage for what promises to be a memorable episode. Wade, who hails from Chicago, is not only a basketball icon but a hometown hero. His presence on Reese’s show adds a meaningful connection, especially since Reese was drafted by the Chicago Sky earlier this year as the seventh overall pick, making her an adopted daughter of the city.
Angel Reese has already made waves in the podcasting world by attracting major talent, but having Wade on “Unapologetically Angel” is a significant moment. Wade’s legacy in basketball, with three NBA championships, numerous All-Star appearances, and a reputation as one of the greatest shooting guards of all time, makes him the most high-profile guest Reese has landed thus far.
Wade’s appearance is sure to resonate with her growing audience, which includes both basketball enthusiasts and pop culture fans. Reese’s ability to blend the two worlds on her podcast is a testament to her influence as an athlete and media personality. As she transitions from her rookie season in the WNBA to building her personal brand, Reese is showing she’s more than just a star on the court.
For his part, Wade seems equally enthusiastic to support Reese in her podcasting journey. As a native of Chicago and someone who has always embraced the city, Wade’s appearance on the show is a fitting tribute to his hometown roots, as well as a nod to the next generation of athletes like Reese, who are making their mark both in basketball and beyond.
Episode 4 of “Unapologetically Angel” drops this Thursday, and with Dwyane Wade as the featured guest, it’s set to be one of the most highly anticipated episodes yet.
Whether they’re tuning in for Reese’s signature style of candid conversation or to hear Wade drop wisdom from his illustrious career, fans won’t want to miss this special episode.
