Angel Reese reminds me of myself because I always support and cheer for my sister whenever I can. That’s just one of the reasons I admire the WNBA star, who has been breaking records since she joined the league.
Recently, Reese was seen sitting court-side at her brother Julian Reese’s game. Julian, a power forward, signed a two-way contract with the Washington Wizards and played his first game with them just a few days later.
Angel looked emotional as he stepped onto the court. She wore his jersey, and her face showed how proud she was to be his big sister throughout the game. Many articles/social media posts claimed she stole the spotlight from her brother, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Whether people meant it as a compliment or just for attention, if you watched the clips as I did, it was clear she made the night about Julian.
The athlete and model is usually dressed like she’s ready for the runway wherever she goes, which I love. But when she’s celebrating her brother, she keeps it casual and is instantly in “supportive big sister” mode.
Snatching rebounds runs in the family: Julian Reese made Wizards franchise history
Making history early in their careers sounds about right for the Reese siblings. In just his third game, Julian scored 18 points and grabbed 20 rebounds. He leads all rookies in most rebounds in a game this season, so far. Angel is the youngest WNBA player in history to snag 20 rebounds in a single game. Look out, world, the Reese siblings are taking over!
