WNBA player Angel Reese has made history by becoming the first professional athlete to walk in a Victoria's Secret runway show. She is now officially one of their "Angels." The forward for the Chicago Sky expressed a strong interest in modeling, prior to the show.

Following a successful college career, Angel partnered with Vogue to announce her transition to the WNBA. The former LSU champion was also featured as a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model in both 2023 and 2024. She is reportedly represented by The Society Management for her fashion endeavors.

Angel has successfully secured numerous partnerships and opportunities. The 6'3" Baltimore native has various endorsements, including Reebok, Beats by Dre, and Amazon. Shaquille O'Neal and Allen Iverson helped her land her deal with Reebok, which reportedly includes a shoe release in 2026.

Reese has partnerships with Reese's candy, Raising Cane's, McDonald's, and Airbnb, giving her an estimated net worth of around $1.7 million. Reese is currently in her second season in the WNBA.

During her debut season, she averaged 13.6 points, 13.1 rebounds, and 1.9 assists per game. Last season, she led the league in rebounding, earned Rookie of the Month, and was selected for her first All-Star game.
