Reese led the SEC in both scoring (23.0 ppg) and rebounding (15.4 rpg), becoming just the fifth player in conference history to lead the league in both categories. Additionally, she set an NCAA record with 34 double-doubles during the season.
While Reese hasn’t boasted the same statistics this season, she’s still been excellent. LSU head coach Kim Mulkey believes Reese has also taken a step forward in leadership this year.
“Angel’s leadership can best be, maybe described is the word, but how hard you play in practice,” Mulkey said. “How hard do you play in practice as this last month kind of comes to a close for her career at LSU? Just play hard. And if she does that then the rest of them will play hard and they’ll play with a lot of confidence when she’s playing hard.”
Now, it appears there’s a chance LSU will enjoy Reese’s leadership against next season. After all, the 6-foot-3 superstar isn’t exactly living the typical college lifestyle. Reese boasts an On3 NIL valuation of $1.7 million, the seventh-most of any collegiate athlete.
