[@patricethomas5368]

Love how she always make sure she lets everybody know it’s about the team, not her.

[@DeeCarLady]

Exactly! She's not selfish trying to take all the credit

[@MrMakeItHappen1]

Yea you can see how they building more and more respect for her

[@Chocolatethunder99]

Yep

[@johnware5277]

You are dead on because they tried to make it like Clark is the team but so far she is not getting away with all fouling she was doing in college.

[@OleMiss662]

The Coach and Vet know the pressure on her and supporting and protecting her.

[@williamdean4775]

Angel really landed in the best situation.. coach, team, and city.

[@bwalto21]

She sure did

[@junnen900]

No she looks like a true champion

[@dfattyadams123]

Angel: "I get 6 fouls, and Ima use all of them." LOL. I love this kid! Go Sky. WIN IT ALL!!!

[@DeeCarLady]

Reese is HER! Her humility and drive is just what the TEAM needs. Not about just 1 person

[@gemmaclaire623]

She answered those questions well

[@troyortega4494]

Angel Reese is a Star with her personality and her basketball talent.

[@AdmiringCookies-cx3zl]

She not no star she fuck with p Diddy and lotte

[@ReginaldVannison7777]

The Sky got their first dub. Love the attempt by Reese for shooting the 3. Good game!

[@DeeCarLady]

Me too! I really see her working on that in off season and it's going to elevate her game next season

[@kentuckylucky5762]

​@@DeeCarLadybet she works on it during olympics break!!! I hope she gets to the next olympics in 2028!!!

[@WhyYouMadd40]

Angel Is HER that tenacity and defense is something you can’t teach

[@mariagregg2350]

I saw Angel get so many free throws at LSU and they won games because of it! It must be her nerves taking over her. You got this Angel

[@WO2411]

Angel is the TRUTH 💯 she is a winner she changed the tone in the 4th 🔥🔥👑

[@marcusb.3038]

She won all 4 years of high school at Baltimore. She won the Natty at LSU in ‘23. She’s a winner PERIOD.

[@WO2411]

[@manman3792]

I love the coaches energy in this interview

[@fighting402]

Diamond is so underrated, it's great to see her back with the Sky. I love her game

[@karahansen1184]

Diamond has overcome so many health & injury obstacles in her career. I'm so happy she's back in Chicago and can be a veteran mentor to our rookies. She plays like she's feeling good. Excited about what this team can do together!

[@ms.inspiration385]

Angel is a gift to the team. She has brought life and a lot of new eyes not only to Chicago to the WNBA. She knows the game and will do well. Congratulations Chicago Sky!

[@moptopmoptop8]

❤ love COACH SPOON!! SHE DON'T HAVE TO SPEAK ONE WORD!!! AND YOU KNOW WHAT SHE THINKING!!! IT'S ABOUT THAT LIFE! WE HERE TO 🏆 WIN!!

[@kentuckylucky5762]

She is super kewl!!!

[@georgewilliams5166]

Very articulate..Angel gives great interviews. I wish her much success. I'm a big fan of coach Spoon.. Diamond is an awesome player. Best wishes to the Sky

[@UncleOodoo]

@diamonddoesit1 is a #baller. She has always been great to the people and fans of the Sky. She wants to win and will do anything to make that happen.

[@lyndarussell1541]

Very articulate?

[@makepeaceu]

This is beautiful. I’m 2 seasons in with Angel. She’s the reason I’m a fan of LSU women’s basketball and now I’ve followed her to Chicago. I’m now being introduced to the WnBA and the incredible talent. Before I just watched the finals and really didn’t know when the season was.

[@jenellreid9610]

Me too!! I’m a big football watcher but Angel has me watching

[@waynejames2160]

Ditto Man. Caught a glimpse of AR after the championship last year and followed LSU from then. Now they got me watching the WNBA and I'm HERE for it!

[@shecutz4513]

Coach Spoon is like "talk to my babies not me". Looking like a proud Auntie🤣♥️

[@aubreysimpson3962]

Great adjustment by Weartherspoon with the defense on Arike and I know it’s early but Arike has to be in the talk for MVP she can hoop.

[@DeeCarLady]

I agree!

[@kentuckylucky5762]

Arike playin lights out

[@DeeCarLady]

@@kentuckylucky5762 yea. I like Mabrey too. But this woman will put that dagger in you and her ball handling is spot on. She can make her own shot without a screen and make you look foolish in the process 😂

[@fratbronation]

@@DeeCarLady mabry is a problem I like her. And yes arike is definitely better be the early candidate for mvp

[@aubreysimpson3962]

When Arike passed from the floor off a loose ball and got up and got the ball back and made the 3 with nowhere to go in the 4th quarter. I was like yeah she different.

[@DM-3000]

😂😂😂😂😂coach said TALK TO THEM!!

[@wonieblue1657]

Angel with the put back and one 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🏆🏆🏆🏆

[@FoundationalAmericanBadass]

[@gabestackson4476]

Yes but she has to stop turning the ball over it really hurts the team🤦🏿‍♂️

Shout out to Angel

[@CharlesFaulkner-vo9mt]

This echoes what LSU announcer Patrick Wright said after Angel came back from foul trouble once. OH GOOD, ANGEL'S BACK! THINGS JUST GO BETTER WHEN ANGEL'S ON THE FLOOR! I GUESS IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING, BUT IT'S REALLY TRUE! That run in the 4th was reminiscent of some of LSU's. Go Angel.❤🔥🏀🏀👑🕊

Angel markets this team! If the team stay humble and allow themselves to be complimented by this marketing then they all will shine! Stay a team mentally and they will go far and become more valuable!

[@freddied4194]

Diamond was a beast on that floor! Angela go girl! The team was on it together, double shots, the rebounds

[@vivyh3395]

Congratulations 💙💙💙

[@BlackThracian]

I love Angels confidence. Even when shes cold or getting defended really wwll she doesn't allow that to affect her play and she keeps that positive team energy

[@lntaylor69]

Angel You need to develop a pump fake shot when you’re trying to shoot over taller players in the post

[@junnen900]

I agree and I'd love to show her how to do it. I hope her coaches take note of this advice. Keep on learning Angel and you'll get better!

[@waynejames2160]

Agreed. But pretty sure there are people in her corner telling her and that She is already working on that plus some other skills. Beast in the making!

[@derekrichardson213]

Great energy and effort in that 4th quarter. Way to finish strong and get that 1st W. Let's Go SKY!!

Not sure if everyone peep this but AR is the only one that is showing her professionalism at the post conference. Not sure if it’s because they’re studs and always cool calm and chill or it’s the vet in them but Angel is-all-the-way-live… Diamond was ballin outta control and Cheneddy too… Congrats on the win 🎉 and notice how AR is so respectful to her team mates she is bright and special… yall keep being a tight team and yall can make it to the finals!!! 🩵💛🖤🫡

I don’t want to speculate but i hope there isn’t any jealousy going on..

[@veeisher]

@@Dre51255 It’s written all over their face, I see it too… I commend Angel Reese she is such a tough cookie because she continues to smile through it all…

[@Dre51255]

@@veeisher yeah a few of us noticed that bs or many just didn’t want to comment. They’re sitting there like they have no interest. No disrespect but these studs need to go bcuz it’s like they have this secret “stud” group among each other. They seem not so welcoming to her outside looking in at times but AR personality opens them up a little. at times 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@veeisher]

@@Dre51255 if “reading the room” was a person… you ain’t lying brother… I hope things get better for AR, especially those that are on her team…
