Reese, a two-time All-Star in as many professional seasons, may be facing an uncertain future with the Chicago Sky amid fierce criticism of the organization’s direction. The WNBA’s leader in rebounds over the past two seasons, Reese wants to win on the court — and she has indicated that she will stop at nothing to marry her WNBA ambitions to her rapidly-expanding portfolio away from the hardwood, which includes a Reebok signature shoe and an NBA 2K26 cover nod.

In June, Reese took one of the major criticisms of her game — her propensity for grabbing her own rebounds — and turned it into a trademark. Mebounds merchandise soon followed, with Reese donating the proceeds to her foundation and showing off her business savvy once more.

“They tried to clown me for rebounds, and what did I do? I made a bag off of it, six figures-plus,” Reese said. “So, y’all can try again, because I do need another idea for some more colorways.”
Reese may not be certain where she will be playing in 2026, but she certainly will continue to troll her haters at every turn — all while profiting from the attention she receives.
