Angel Reese is looking the part ahead of the WNBA Draft. The former LSU basketball star was spotted wearing an all-silver dress when arriving at the WNBA Draft on Monday night. Reese looked relaxed as she’s projected to be a top-10 pick.

In ESPN’s latest WNBA mock draft, Reese is projected to be selected by the Chicago Sky at No. 7 overall. Michael Voepel of ESPN wrote that Reese “was a dominant rebounder in college; she had 20 in her final game for LSU.” Voepel added, “A lot has been made of Reese needing growth on the offensive end. But Weatherspoon was a defensive specialist as a player and could really value Reese’s potential.”

Reese, 21, had a memorable career at LSU. In her two seasons with the Tigers, Reese was selected to the All-SEC First Team twice was named SEC Player of the Year in 2024 and led the Tigers to a national championship in 2023. Reese came close to leading the Tigers to back-to-back titles, but the team lost the Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes in the Elite Eight this year.

“Yeah, we’ve seen everything this year. We have been through so much adversity. I’m more than proud of this team. We don’t have that much depth. We have some injuries. I took some time away from the team,” Reese said after the Tigers lost to Iowa.

“So many things happened this year, so many things hit us, and we never folded. Just being able to come out tonight and give our all for 40 minutes, we came up short, but we have to keep our heads high.”

Angel Reese ready for the challenges of the WNBA

Reese officially declared for the WNBA Draft earlier this month. “I’ve done everything I wanted to in college,” Reese said in Vogue. “I’ve won a national championship, I’ve gotten [Southeastern Conference] Player of the Year, I’ve been an All-American. My ultimate goal is to be a pro — and to be one of the greatest basketball players to play, ever. I feel like I’m ready.”

She continued: “I’ll be working with grown women. I’ll be working with women that have kids, women that have a family to feed. I’m going to have to work my butt off every single day and grind. And who wouldn’t want that? I don’t want anything in my life to be easy.”
