Angel Reese’s rookie season was spectacular, the 22 year old set new records in what she does best, rebounding and dominating the paint.
I can’t say for sure, but maybe in any other season Reese’s stats would have worked for her to win the Rookie of the Year award, but this year with the presence and dominance of Caitlin Clark, added to Reese’s injury, it looked impossible for the seventh pick of the 2024 WNBA Draft, even after a record-setting rookie campaign for Reese.
Reese finished with 446 rebounds, surpassing Sylvia Fowles’ single-season record of 404, which was later surpassed by MVP A’Ja Wilson and record for rebounds per game.
Angel Reese Credits Fame Over WNBA Salary for Paying the Bills
Angel Reese currently has a 4-year, $324,383 contract with the Chicago Sky, including an average annual salary of $81,096.
Just this year, thanks largely to Caitlin Clark, the WNBA saw huge profits, but despite the historic season, she, like many other players, clarified in some Instagram stories that it’s not her WNBA contract that pays her bills, this is what she said:I just hope you know the WNBA don’t pay my bills at all, I don’t even think that pays one of my bills. Literally, I’m trying to think of my rent for where I stay at.
I’m gonna do the math real quick. I don’t even know my salary. She says it because an information that she pays $8,000 a month to rent her luxury apartment, if we calculate what she makes in the WNBA and what her annual cost would be without being Einstein, we can calculate that the numbers don’t add up.

I think these comments are more about the fame she has gained this year, boasting 4.4 million followers on Instagram and 4.6 million on TikTok, where her videos have garnered over 100 million likes. She also recently launched her podcast ‘Unapologetically’, which has seen strong ratings in its first few weeks.
With the level and personality she showed this season Resse can expect fame to keep coming her way, her career in entertainment is just beginning. In addition, she has current and future business ventures, as she mentions in this video.
Angel Reese is joining Unrivaled
The former national champion with LSUwill join a select group of top WNBA players in the Unrivaled 3-on-3 league founded by recently crowned New York Libertychampion Breanna Stewart and Defensive Player of the Year and runner-up with the Minnesota Lynx, Napheesa Collier.
Unrivaled is an innovative 3v3 professional women’s basketball league featuring 6 teams with 5 players on each team. The inaugural season will begin in Miami in January 2025.
Reese will be joined by WNBA players Chelsea Gray, Kelsey Plum, Arike Ogunbowale, Jewell Loyd, Jackie Young, and of course Stewart and Collier. It’s surprising that Caitlin Clark won’t be joining, as we know how she could elevate this league.
