Angel Reese‘s big night ended in her favor. The LSU women’s basketball star attended the 2024 WNBA Draft on Monday night (April 15) and was selected as the No. 7 overall pick. Her new official home team is the Chicago Sky, who also picked South Carolina’s Kamilla Cardoso at No. 3.
The power forward wasted no time getting acquainted with her new squad, as she shared a brief message from the team’s Instagram account. “Hey Chi-Town, it’s Angel Reese, the Bayou Barbie. I’m coming to Chi-Town. I’m super excited to compete and work hard. Let’s win!” she said as she tipped her Chicago Sky fitted and flashed a grin. She also posted a selfie with her new gear to her IG story with the caption, “Chi-Town Wassupp?????”
For the occasion, the Maryland native rocked an eye-catching backless silver dress with a plunging neckline and hood. She completed the look with a grill by Virginia-based company Essential Grillz.
