The WNBA star and Reese’s Pieces finally joined forces to give fans what they’ve been begging for with three exclusive collections.
In a collaboration she’s been trying to land for several years, WNBA star player Angel Reese has officially locked in an endorsement deal with The Hershey Company’s Reese’s brand. Fans now have access to a new collection of limited-edition Reese’s-branded apparel.
On Aug. 21, the Chicago Sky player and the candy brand released the Angel Reese x Reese’s Pieces Logo Collection, the first drop of three waves of merchandise. A press release by The Hershey Company stated that the partnership celebrates the fans with nods to the WNBA rookie and the brand. “This collection is for my Reese’s Pieces — who’ve been with me every step of the way, and the design elements bring together things that I love –basketball, style, and of course, Reese’s!” the 22-year-old athlete said
The Angel Reese x Reese’s Pieces Logo Collection features eight pieces of custom merchandise, including a cropped tee, t-shirt, hoodie, and hat offered in white and cream. The custom designs embrace the American candy’s aesthetic and capture the unique style of the LSU alum who’s made back-to-back fashion statements in the league.
Angel Reese has quickly turned into one of the most talented players and rebounders in the WNBA despite being a rookie for the Chicago Sky. The 6-foot-3 forward recently passed Indiana Fever star Aliyah Boston in the WNBA’s record book, securing the second-most rebounds by a rookie in league history. She grabbed her 336th rebound of the season against the Connecticut Sun on Friday, helping her pass Boston with ample time left in the game. Boston previously held the record from her 2023 Rookie of the Year campaign, where she averaged 14.5 points and 8.4 rebounds per game. Angel Reese has passed Aliyah Boston for the second-most rebounds by a rookie in WNBA history, pulling down her 336th board of the season tonight.
Reese achieved the prestigious feat in the second quarter of the Sky’s game with just under 10 minutes left to play in the first half. She has plenty of time, in the match and during the season, to extend the streak and attain the No. 1 spot on the list.
Atlanta Dream center Tina Charles holds the record, hauling in 398 rebounds in 2010 when she played for the Connecticut Sun.
She’s averaged 13.6 points and 12.3 rebounds per game, leading the Sky as well as all rookies in terms of average rebounds. The rookie has already notched the most consecutive double-double in WNBA history, securing 15 straight earlier in the season to pass league legend Candace Parker.
