The former LSU star played for Rose BC during the upstart league\u2019s inaugural season in 2025, earning Unrivaled\u2019s Defensive Player of the Year award, while her team went on to win the league\u2019s first championship.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGood morning to my Rosebuds &amp; my Rosebuds ONLY!\u201d Reese posted on X on Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Goodmorning to my Rosebuds &amp; my Rosebuds ONLY! \ud83e\udd79\ud83d\ude09\ud83c\udf39 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BTA?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">#BTA<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Angel Reese (@Reese10Angel) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Reese10Angel\/status\/2021594662343950728?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">February 11, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p>While Reese\u2019s return to Unrivaled doesn\u2019t necessarily come as a surprise \u2014 she had recently posted on social media about how much she missed playing for Rose BC \u2014 it could still potentially provide a much-needed boost for the league. Especially when considering <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/unrivaled\/grim-start-year-2-viewership-craters.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the viewership struggles that it has already faced in its second season<\/a>, after enjoying <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/unrivaled\/attracts-solid-audience-tnt-debut.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">mixed<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/unrivaled\/unrivaled-viewership-modest-week-2.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">results<\/a> throughout its debut campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Not only was Reese one of Unrivaled\u2019s best players (she led the league in rebounding last season), but she is also one of its most famous. Dating back to her storied college career in Baton Rouge, the 23-year-old has generated one of the biggest followings in women\u2019s basketball thanks to her unapologetic personality and rivalry with Caitlin Clark, which has also carried over to their WNBA careers.<\/p>\n<p>As for Reese\u2019s outlook moving forward, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/7037012\/2026\/02\/11\/angel-reese-unrivaled-rose-sky\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Athletic reports<\/a> that she won\u2019t play in Unrivaled\u2019s upcoming 1-on-1 tournament, but will play in Rose BC\u2019s final three regular-season games beginning on Feb. 20. While it remains to be seen whether she\u2019ll be able to replicate her dominant form from a year ago, her presence will undoubtedly increase the league\u2019s star power during a season in which fellow WNBA standouts Napheesa Collier and Sabrina Ionescu have sat out due to injuries.<\/p>\n<p>\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As Unrivaled enters the second half of its second season, the women\u2019s basketball three-on-three league is re-adding one&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":597707,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3724],"tags":[453,7,77688],"class_list":{"0":"post-597706","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-basketball","8":"tag-angel-reese","9":"tag-basketball","10":"tag-rose-bc"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/116054596314418660","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/597706","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=597706"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/597706\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/597707"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=597706"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=597706"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=597706"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
