Chicago Sky star Angel Reese has called out a false quote that was posted on social media and attributed to her on Saturday.
The post on X attributed a quote to Reese that talked about how much money she makes in a week compared to those who make in seven days. This seemed to be an insult to Reese’s intelligence.

“Here we go again. Rent must be due,” she wrote in response.
Reese is set to enter the WNBA for her third season, although it is unclear when the year will begin because the players’ union and the league have not yet reached an agreement on a new collective bargaining agreement.
For now, Reese is competing with Team USA as she participates in qualifying matches for the FIBA Women’s World Cup. The Americans beat Italy 93-59 on Saturday. Reese had five points and seven rebounds in the win.
She averaged 7 points, 9.3 rebounds and 1 steal per game in the three qualifying games. She had six points against Senegal and 10 points against Puerto Rico.

Reese entered the WNBA in 2024 as Sky selected her 7th overall in the draft. She was an All-Star in each of her first two seasons. She averages 14.1 points and 12.9 rebounds in 64 career games.
Time is running out for a new deal with the CBA to be reached or the start of the 2026 season could be postponed.
WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert said progress in negotiations and an agreement were needed by Monday to avoid possible disruption.

“I’ve never been a gambler in my life and I’m not going to start now. But we have to have a deal done by Monday,” Engelbert said Friday. “We have to do it without disrupting some of the fact that we have to get this two-team expansion (draft) going. We have to get expansion going. We have to get free agency going. We have to get the college draft done.”
