Angel Reese is getting a signature shoe.
After a promising rookie season in the WNBA that was cut short due to injury, Reese has agreed to a new multi-year extension with Reebok that will include a signature shoe release in 2026, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania.
Reese partnered with Reebok prior to her final season at LSU in 2023-2024. Fellow LSU basketball alumni Shaquille O’Neal is president of Reebok’s basketball division. The two worked together on the deal and have maintained a strong relationship.
Reese averaged 13.6 points and a league record 13.1 rebounds per game in her rookie season with the Chicago Sky.
She rattled off 15 straight double-doubles and posted 10-plus rebounds in 28 games, both league records. A wrist injury cost her the final portion of the league year, but she still finished second in the Rookie of the Year voting to Caitlin Clark.
