Rookie Phenom Makes Her Mark
In her debut WNBA season, Reese proved she’s a force both on and off the court. The Sky forward averaged an impressive 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds per game, narrowly missing out on Rookie of the Year honors to Caitlin Clark. Undeterred, Reese secured a spot on the All-Rookie Team and continued to shine.
Channeling the WNBA’s Best
By selecting Collier and Stewart as her jersey muses, Reese celebrated two of the league’s most dominant forces. Collier, the Lynx’s defensive anchor, and Stewart, the Liberty’s offensive juggernaut, have been instrumental in their teams’ Finals runs.
- Napheesa Collier: 2024 WNBA Defensive Player of the Year
- Breanna Stewart: 2024 WNBA scoring champion
The jersey’s design cleverly incorporates both players’ likenesses, with Stewart’s steely gaze on the Liberty blue side and Collier’s fierce determination captured on the Lynx red.
