LSU Basketball Star Angel Reese Declares for WNBA Draft
LSU basketball star Angel Reese, also known as Bayou Barbie, has officially declared for the WNBA draft, according to an exclusive interview with Vogue. Reese shared her decision to forgo her senior season at LSU and make the leap into the professional ranks alongside fellow draft prospect Caitlin Clark.
Reese, who is projected to be a first-round pick in the upcoming draft on April 15th, expressed her desire to become a top basketball player and make a big announcement about turning pro. The talented athlete started her college career at Maryland before transferring to LSU and winning a national championship in her first season with the Tigers.
LSU coach Kim Mulkey praised Reese for her contributions to the team, noting that she has transformed the program and helped them secure their first title. However, Reese has also faced challenges and pressures since becoming a national star, including death threats and negative attention.
Despite these obstacles, Reese remains committed to standing strong and being a role model for young girls. She has been a top-earning player in college through NIL deals and is expected to attract lucrative endorsements when she joins the WNBA.
Fans and supporters are eagerly anticipating Reese’s next chapter as she takes the leap into the professional basketball world. With her talent and determination, the sky’s the limit for this rising star.
