The new Chicago Sky star is ready to put college behind her.
ngel Reese says her mother is relieved she can “live her best life” after revealing she will graduate on time from LSU on Saturday to collect her degree.
Reese is set to graduate from LSU on Saturday, bringing an official end to her four-year college career, as she now turns her focus to becoming a professional basketball player.
The No.7 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft joined Chicago Sky in April and will make her debut this week for her new team, and that was followed by the exciting news of her graduation to celebrate her academic achievements.
It will be a relief for Reese, who can focus on making her debut for the Sky against the Dallas Wings on Wednesday evening, in more ways than one after receiving criticism about her GPA.
A bizarre row ends in Reese victory
It comes after a bizarre row erupted between her mom and the mother of her LSU team-mate Flau’jae Johnson on social media over grammar, which she then linked to Reese’s school struggles.
Reese was benched for an early portion of the LSU season over an undisclosed reason, with rumors that her low GPA was to blame.
Angel Reese’s mom, Angel Webb Reese, posted a message on Instagram that called out people for not spelling correctly in texts. That comment sparked a reply from Kia Brooks, the mother of Flua’jae Johnson, who launched an astonishing attack on the Reeses.
“You definitely know about grammar errors when your daughter got a 2.0 or less GPA. And in fact when writing your smart message you didn’t capitalize nor did you use any periods,” Brooks said.
“Stop being petty, fake and hateful, and take responsibility for you and your daughters actions. Your just as responsible you raised her that way.”
But Reese, with a professional career and net worth of $1.7million to add to her college degree, will have the last laugh.
