JUST IN: Angel Reese Set to Sign New Contract Worth $204 Million with…..
Angel Reese increases seven-figure net worth with new partnership adding to sneaker deal and women’s soccer team investment
Angel Reese continues to level up.
The WNBA rookie has recently partnered with Reese’s, the Hershey owned brand of chocolate famous for its peanut butter-filled candy that shares her last name, to create the perfect athlete-product collaboration.
The ridiculously marketable Chicago Sky forward is currently one of the biggest names in women’s basketball and is now an official brand ambassador for the confectionary brand.
The two sides have come together to partner on an epic apparel collection, the Angel Reese x Reese’s Pieces Logo Collection.
The first of three ‘Angel x Reese’s’ collection drops is available on on TheAngelReese.com and features eight ‘Pieces’ items, including tees, hoodies, and hats.
The two future drops will see a jersey release and, lastly, another eight-item apparel set featuring the brand’s Reese’s Cups logo. 
As the Maryland natives’ stardom grew, her fans began to call themselves ‘Reese Pieces.’ The nickname came after the Sky’s June 25 win over the rival Indiana Fever, where Reese finally gave a name to her faithful with a post on Twitter/X, saying “Reese’s pieces yall at?????”
The social media account for the candy brand replied, “Where are we? Just following our favorite player” along with an image of several Reese’s Pieces, including one with a black headband in the same style she wears on the court
Several days later, Reese wore a custom-painted pair of Reeboks by artist Marvin Baroota that featured a Reese’s peanut butter cup along the toe cap and her name spelled across the right toe in the Reese’s Pieces design.
Now she’s offering fans the chance to jump on the hype.
“The fans really made this happen,” Reese told Boardroom. “This collection is for my Reese’s Pieces — who’ve been with me every step of the way.
The connection between my name and the Reese’s brand was obvious, but it went deeper than that,” added Reese. “My fans started calling themselves ‘Reese’s Pieces,’ and after I kept seeing it on social, I started engaging with some of my fans about it.”
I wanted to deliver something that they could proudly wear this season. We worked as quickly as possible with Reese’s to build a collection that really reflected who I am—bold, vibrant and unapologetically me.”
The 22-year-old forward first made a name for herself in college at LSU when she won the NCAA national championship over Caitlin Clark and Iowa in 2023.
Clark, the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer in college basketball history, was selected No. 1 overall by the Indiana Fever in the 2024 WNBA Draft while Reese went to the Chicago Sky at No. 7.
Their Magic Johnson-Larry Bird esque rivalry has continued throughout the pros while having an unprecedented impact on the WNBA’s popularity, viewing figures and sales.
Both have created history during their rookie season. Reese recently became the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 20 double-doubles, achieving the milestone in just 27 games.
However, despite her rising status, Reese’s four-year contract with the Sky amounts to ‘just’ $343,000.
