In helping lead the Atlanta Dream to the WNBA Finals, Angel Reese has shown herself to be the league’s Megan Thee Stallion
Similar to the trajectory of Megan Thee Stallion, nothing could stop the resilient rise of Angel Reese.
Angel Reese's move from the Chicago Sky to the Atlanta Dream has proven to be a pivotal moment in her career. Not only is she an accomplished World Cup gold medalist, but she has also been named AP and WNBA Defensive Player of the Year. The Atlanta Dream have reached the WNBA Finals, set to face the Golden State Valkyries in a best-of-seven series beginning on Saturday.
Reese's rise to the top has been nothing short of remarkable, despite her initial exposure to a toxic culture war that targeted her confident and unapologetic Black womanhood. This backlash was reminiscent of the challenges faced by another influential Black woman, Megan Thee Stallion, who has similarly faced both accolades and adversity throughout her career.
The two women have now formed a sisterhood built on mutual respect and shared experiences, echoing their individual journeys of complete liberation and resilience.
