Angel Reese might not be playing in the Unrivaled league, but that can’t keep the limelight away from her. Reese is part of the NBA-WNBA players list, starring in Stephen Curry’s GOAT movie. While she is setting a strong example in the entertainment and fashion worlds, some critics are still talking about her basketball skills.
Most of those voices point to her rebounding ability, mentioning that the player can only rebound and can’t do more than that. Her head coach, Tyler Marsh, answered such critics in a recent interview.
