Despite her undeniable impact on the court and growing star power off it, Angel Reese’s No. 25 ranking stirred plenty of debate among fans and analysts. Many felt the Chicago Sky forward deserved a higher spot, especially after a rookie season where she consistently delivered double-doubles and brought a fierce competitive edge to her team. Supporters argue that Reese’s rebounding, defensive presence, and leadership qualities already make her one of the league’s rising forces. While ESPN’s ranking may seem like a slight, it could very well serve as extra motivation for Reese to silence doubters heading into her sophomore season.
