- WNBA. Caitlin Clark's Fever mercilessly troll Angel Reese and Chicago Sky after their crushing victory
- WNBA. Caitlin Clark and the Fever have a clear advantage over Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky
Whether she's pulling down rebounds or pulling off runway-level fashion looks, Angel Reese has made clear that her dual ions are here to stay. And when she walked through the tunnel ahead of the rematch against the Indiana Fever, her outfit sparked just as much conversation as her game does.
"It's always been both: basketball and fashion," Reese said in her Vogue interview after becoming the first professional basketball player to land a solo cover of American Vogue in January. The spotlight has only grown brighter since.
Basketball is in Reese's DNA, but fashion is where she amplifies her identity. Her tunnel walk style, which draws comparisons to NBA fashion icon Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, has quickly become a signature part of her personal brand. And her latest ensemble was no exception.
Reese makes a statement with high-fashion armor ahead of rivalry clash
As she prepared to take on Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever once again, Reese showed up to the arena dressed on a high-gloss black leather trench coat, cinched sharply at the waist, paired with stiletto boots and a dramatic fur hat that turned heads the moment she stepped out.
"A couple more," she told photographers as they snapped pictures of her tunnel strut.
The stakes were high heading into the game. The Fever had dealt the Sky a demoralizing 35-point loss the last time they faced off, and even without Clark in full form, Indiana had been finding ways to win.
Online reactions to Reese's outfit were mixed. While some praised the look for its fearless originality, others questioned its appropriateness or took aim at the dramatic silhouette. Still, if Reese has proven anything, it's that she's not here to play it safe. Whether it's fashion or basketball, she's committed to standing out.
But the comparison to Gilgeous-Alexander is no accident. Just like Shai's unforgettable entrance during the 2025 playoffs in a black leather trench, silver chains, and futuristic shades, Reese's look carried the same aura: unbothered, unafraid, and undeniably powerful.
