Angel Reese, the WNBA’s rising star, recently landed in New York City, and let’s just say, her touchdown wasn’t just about basketball. She arrived to meet none other than her “twin” Jodie Woods, who also happens to be Jordyn Woods’ little sister. Forget basketball stats—this meetup screams goals of the bestie variety. Reese, who’s been balancing hoops and the high life like a pro, took to social media to announce her NYC arrival, tagging Jodie with a message that oozed energy:
“Hey bookie im hereeee wyaa?!??!! [Jodie Woods],” Reese wrote on her Instagram story.
Jodie, clearly not one to be outdone in the sass department, replied with her own Insta story that practically radiated ‘twin energy.’ She shot back: “It’s twin nemmmm. Boutta come steal you.” 🖐️🚗 Now, that’s what we call a meet-up worth a popcorn snack! 🍿
For those keeping score, this isn’t their first rendezvous. Just last month, Reese and Jodie were spotted together at a fancy shindig with Jordyn Woods and NBA star Karl-Anthony Towns, reminding us that the sports-fashion-entertainment trifecta is alive and thriving. If there was a Venn diagram of coolness, these two would be right in the center.
Angel Reese: More Than Just Buckets
In case you forgot (or were distracted by the high-profile friendships), Angel Reese is also a baller. The Chicago Sky star played 34 games during her rookie WNBA season before a wrist injury took her out. Now, as she’s recovering post-surgery, she’s trading shooting drills for some serious brand-building—because who says you can’t do both?
Apart from hanging out with A-list besties, Reese has been killing it with her podcast “Unapologetically Angel.” With over 58.3K YouTube subscribers (and growing!), the show is basically a who’s-who of famous guests and fiery hot takes. Reese is doing what few WNBA rookies have done: dominating not just on the court but in podcasts, fashion, and even music.
VIP Angel: From Hoops to Hits
Reese’s star power extends beyond sports arenas. She’s become a regular at high-profile concerts and events, blending into the celebrity scene like she was born for it. Case in point: earlier this year at an Usher concert in L.A., Reese was personally invited on stage while Usher belted out ‘There Goes My Baby.’ Now, if you’re wondering if she pulled off some smooth vocals—well, kinda. Reese, in a moment of very relatable nervousness, admitted on her podcast:
“I love Usher… but nah, I don’t want him putting cherries in my mouth. I didn’t even want to sing into the mic. I was like, ‘Noooo! I don’t wanna do it!’” 😂
Scared or not, Reese killed it. Because let’s be honest, when Usher hands you the mic, you’re already winning at life.
Jodie & Angel: The BFFs We Didn’t Know We Needed
Let’s circle back to this NYC touchdown, though. Jodie Woods isn’t just a ‘little sister’ in the shadow of Jordyn. She’s a social media powerhouse with her own personality—and clearly, Angel’s partner in crime when it comes to turning the streets of NYC into their personal playground. With Jodie playfully threatening to “steal” her, one can only wonder what sort of antics these two will get up to. Should we expect a TikTok duet? Matching fits? Maybe an impromptu dance-off in Times Square?
It’s clear that while Angel Reese is recovering from injury, she’s certainly not slowing down in terms of brand-building, networking, and generally living her best life. And with bestie Jodie by her side, this duo is on track to take over more than just the WNBA headlines.
So, buckle up, folks—because wherever Angel and Jodie show up next, you know it’s going to be one wild (and stylish) ride.
