- WNBA. Former Lakers star slams Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese's potential Co-ROTY title amid fierce competition
- WNBA. Angel Reese continues to rack up records while the Chicago Sky struggles to soar
Angel Reese may somewhat be in the shadow of Caitlin Clark on the court, given their respective collegiate careers, but Reese is making her own mark off the court, securing a sponsorship deal with Reese's.
The confectionary company, known best for their peanut butter-based cups and pieces, share the same name with Angel Reese and a partnership only seems logical now it has been officially announced.
What are the details of the Reese/Reese's partnership?
Reese, who plays her professional basketball for the Chicago Sky, has unveiled a limited-edition collection of jerseys featuring her name, number and signature logo.
They are all produced in the distinctive orange and yellow color scheme of Reese's confectionary products.
There are also custom tees, hoodies, cropped shirts and hats which feature peanut butter cups and Angel's unique insignia.
Fans needn't rush to the stores, though, with the merchandise release being spread out over the span of three exclusive content drops.
Fans will have the chance to purchase items from all three drops, and it is not thought that people will miss out.
Who made the collaboration happen?
Whilst it's normal for professional athletes to entrust the task of securing branding deals to their agents, in this case Angel Reese has made clear that this decision was fan-driven.
"This collection is for my Reese's Pieces," Reese declared in a statement.
"They've been with me every step of the way and the design elements bring together things that I love, basketball, style, and of course, Reese's."
Prices for the merchandise will start at $39, after Hershey's called the deal a 'first-of-its-kind' fan inspired collaboration.
After the WNBA break for the Olympics, Reese has been back in Chicago to resume her rookie season in the league.
The Sky have played three matches since the resumption of competition, winning just one against the Los Angeles Sparks.
In those three games, Reese has averaged a return of 14.7 points.
