Chicago Sky star Angel Reese wants WNBA players to receive a big-time rise from their next Collective Bargaining Agreement, which is scheduled for after the upcoming season. She made a pretty big purchase before any raise on the basketball court comes to fruition.
Reese doubled down on her threat that WNBA players would strike if their demands weren’t met during the next CBA.
More money is coming to the Chicago Sky star
During a recent podcast episode of “Unapologetically Angel”, rapper Chrisean Rock suggested Reese was deserving of higher pay because she does what LeBron James does.
Reese agreed that heftier paychecks were coming.
“They ain’t got the money for us just yet, but it’s coming,” Reese said. “It’s coming. It’s a lot that goes into it. But it’s coming. Trust me, it’s coming.”
Reese is banking on it.
Angel Reese bought a $1.275 million house
Per Bob Goldsborough of the Chicago Tribune, Reese bought a house earlier this month worth $1.275 million.
“Chicago Sky power forward Angel Reese on April 11 paid $1.275 million for a newly built, four-bedroom, 3,600-square-foot house in southwest suburban Lemont,” Goldsborough wrote.
Reese purchased the residence via a company.
“In Lemont, Reese purchased the house through a recently formed limited liability company,” Goldsborough wrote. “Her new house has 3 ½ bathrooms, a first-floor study, a media room, a three-car garage and a lookout basement, all on a 0.41-acre property.
“The house had been on the market since January 2024, when it first was listed for $1.325 million. Its asking price later was reduced to $1.275 million.”
Reese makes about $81,000 per year in the WNBA. However, she has other business ventures, like her podcast. The former LSU standout has partnered with McDonald’s.
Due to her successes on and off the court, Reese has been able to pay off her mother’s house as well.
