Angel Reese didn’t just pull up for opening day, she arrived, like a boss, walking into the boardroom with receipts in hand.
The Chicago Sky star made her presence felt before the ball ever tipped, striding into Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis like she had business to handle and everyone was on notice. This wasn’t just a pregame fit. It was a statement.
Dressed in a sharp gray blazer, matching shorts, and bold black glasses, Reese looked less like she was headed to a basketball game and more like she was about to close a deal. Socks with heels? Check. Hair curled to perfection? Of course. This was “Business Barbie” in full form- confident, composed, and completely locked in.
Back In Action, Back In Style
Now healthy, Reese rejoins a revamped Sky team aiming for a playoff push under new head coach Tyler Marsh. Chicago missed the postseason last year with a 13-27 record, largely due to Reese’s late-season wrist injury.
Before tip-off, the WNBA acknowledged Reese’s return with a social media post: “She’s back and she’s ever so fly.”
Fans quickly echoed the sentiment, flooding comment sections with reactions.
“Queen Energy Reloaded,” one user wrote.
Another chimed in, “She came business ready. All business today…”
Caitlin Clark, fresh off her own headline-making rookie season and WNBA Rookie of the Year honors, showed up in all black- a sleek suit that drew comparisons to a “female John Wick.” The pair has a well-documented history, dating back to the 2023 NCAA championship when Reese’s LSU squad topped Clark’s Iowa. That rivalry sparked nationwide attention and added extra heat to their WNBA game.
Chicago returns to action Thursday against the defending champion New York Liberty. If Reese’s season debut fit says anything, it’s that she plans to lead the Sky with the same confidence she walked in with- business first, always.
