Angel Reese, aka the “Bayou Barbie” turned WNBA rising star, never shies away from delivering entertainment on or off the court. Her podcast, Unapologetically Angel, is already creating waves—think Shaquille O’Neal, Dwyane Wade, and GloRilla level waves. But her latest guest, comedian Funny Marco (Marco Summers), might’ve just given listeners some gold they didn’t see coming.
During what seemed like a routine episode of playful banter, Reese, always one to push the boundaries, suggested she could hook Funny Marco up with one of her WNBA teammates. But Marco flipped the script faster than a missed layup, shocking Reese by admitting he already had his eyes set on a certain WNBA player. And the kicker? He’s actually talking to her—a revelation that had Reese in disbelief.
In true Reese fashion, she didn’t just let the moment slide. With all the energy of someone ready to spill the tea, she asked for the name. Marco, keeping it smooth, leaned in and whispered it. Reese’s reaction? Pure hilarity: “My na getting bhes!” Yup, Angel Reese said it live on the air, cementing the episode as an instant classic.
And while Marco kept the name of his WNBA crush under wraps (because drama’s always better when it’s shrouded in mystery), he did drop a hint that he was the one who made the first move. Bold? Absolutely. But will it lead to anything? Guess we’ll have to wait until he shows up at some WNBA games next season to see if he’s really in the game or still stuck on the bench.
Meanwhile, Reese, always in the spotlight, isn’t just making noise with her podcast. She’s also making headlines on the court. After an impressive rookie season with the Chicago Sky, where she averaged 13.6 points per game and dominated the restricted area like it was her personal fiefdom, she’s looking to add even more firepower to her game.
Reese recently posted a workout video on Instagram, flexing her range with player development coach Iren Cergio Rainey. The footage showed her working on everything from the mid-range jumper to three-pointers, proving that she’s gunning for that next level. Her caption? Simple, but fitting: “Her All ALONE.”
And while she’s gearing up for the 2025 WNBA season, she’s not stopping there. Reese is also set to compete in the inaugural “Unrivaled” league, where she’ll go toe-to-toe with some of the WNBA’s biggest stars—Kelsey Plum, Breanna Stewart, and Napheesa Collier, just to name a few. If you thought her rookie season was impressive, buckle up. The Angel Reese show is just getting started, and it’s one that you won’t want to miss.
As for Funny Marco’s WNBA crush? We’ll see if he’s really got game or if this is just another comedy bit that doesn’t quite land. Either way, Angel Reese will be there, microphone in hand, ready to deliver the laughs and keep us all entertained.
