Chicago Sky rookie forward Angel Reese recently opened up about her decision to join Unrivaled, a new 3-on-3 women’s basketball league set to debut next January. Founded by WNBA stars Breanna Stewart of the New York Liberty and Napheesa Collier of the Minnesota Lynx, Unrivaled gives players an opportunity to play in a professional competitive league in the United States during the WNBA offseason. During a Sky media availability, Reese had an honest answer for why she chose to join Unrivaled, noting that she didn’t want to leave the country in the offseason. “Being able to be in Miami from January to March, not having to go overseas,” Reese said. “Nobody wants to go overseas. A lot of us never wanna have to go overseas, but some people do have to go overseas unfortunately, so being able to make six figures within three months, being able to be housed in Miami, just being able to get better. “Being able to know two great players that are starting something, I think it’s amazing,” continued Reese. “3-on-3 is something that I love to do, I haven’t been able to play competitively but I think I can work on some of my individual skills because 3-on-3 exposes everything. So I’m excited for it.” Angel Reese on joining Unrivaled, the 3v3 league co-founded by Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier: “Nobody wants to go overseas.”
