However, Reese, a long-time rival of Indiana Fever star player Caitlin Clark, has decided to explore other aspects of her career. Recently, the Sky forward surprised her fans by announcing her upcoming podcast, “Unapologetically Angel.” The podcast episodes will be released every Thursday, co-hosted by Maya Reese, an Emmy Award-winning producer and co-host at Playmaker.
“Secrets out. still freaking out. @angelreese5, are you ready?! @unapologeticallyshow,” she captioned an Instagram post hyping up the podcast.” Maya Reese, Producer and Co-host of the podcast, wrote in her latest post on Instagram.
Reese had an outstanding college career playing for LSU. She delivered remarkable performances on the court, especially during the 2022-23 season, when she averaged 23 points, 2.3 assists, and 15.4 rebounds per game.
