Angel Reese, the dazzling Chicago Sky rookie, is living a dream year, fresh off an impressive collegiate career at LSU and a first-round pick in the WNBA Draft. After setting a new double-double record and making the All-Star Game alongside fellow rookie sensation Caitlin Clark, Reese is now on a well-deserved break thanks to the Olympics. And what better way to unwind than a glamorous trip to Paris?
But Reese’s Parisian vacation has hit a major snag right from the get-go. Her excitement was palpable as she jetted off to the City of Lights, only to have her luggage play an impressive game of hide and seek. Yes, her bags decided to embark on their own little adventure, leaving Reese in a bit of a bind.
In an almost comedic twist of fate, Reese and her entourage were handed a $100 stipend to tide them over until the bags are located. Now, anyone who has been to Paris knows that $100 might get you a croissant and a cup of coffee – if you’re lucky. Reese, ever the optimist, has taken to the streets of Paris with this meager sum, likely muttering, “Is this some kind of fashion week joke?”
Her fans, who were buzzing with excitement over her Parisian adventure, quickly turned their speculation wheels. Could this mean Reese is joining the USA Women’s National Team? Alas, that’s not on the cards, but she will undoubtedly be there to cheer on her WNBA colleagues with her signature flair.
So, while Angel Reese may be starting her Paris trip with a suitcase full of nothing but dreams, she’s handling it with the grace and humor that’s endeared her to so many. Here’s hoping her bags return soon, because Paris is a lot more fun with a proper wardrobe. Until then, she’ll just have to make do with that croissant.
