Angel Reese is all set for Sunday morning’s big showdown. The Chicago Sky are gearing up to face off against the Las Vegas Aces in a nationally televised game, and all eyes were on Reese as she arrived at the arena in a head-turning pregame outfit. The WNBA rookie, who has quickly become one of the leading contenders for Rookie of the Year, made a splash with her stylish jean shorts ensemble, capturing the attention of fans and media alike.
Reese, who rose to prominence at LSU under the guidance of coach Kim Mulkey and played a pivotal role in securing a national championship, has continued to make headlines as she transitions to the professional stage. Her arrival outfit on Sunday morning quickly went viral, with CBS Sports sharing footage of the moment that had fans buzzing on social media.
But it’s not just her fashion sense that’s drawing attention—Reese has a major challenge ahead as she prepares to take on A’ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces. Wilson, widely regarded as the best player in the league, is the frontrunner for this season’s MVP award. However, the Aces have shown some vulnerabilities, particularly on the defensive end, in recent games.

Wilson herself acknowledged the team’s struggles, saying, “When we look (bad) on the defensive end, we’re gonna look like pure garbage on the offensive end,” following a tough loss to the Chicago Sky earlier in the season. This sets the stage for a highly anticipated matchup between Reese and Wilson, where both players will have something to prove.
The game is set to take place at Wintrust Arena in Chicago on Sunday afternoon, with tipoff scheduled for noon ET. Fans can catch all the action live on CBS, with streaming available on Paramount Plus.
As Reese and the Sky take on Wilson and the Aces, the stakes are high, and the basketball world will be watching closely to see how this rising star fares against the league’s best.
