Chicago Sky sensation Angel Reese has proven that her on-court charisma translates seamlessly to the world of social media. This time, the WNBA star stole the spotlight with a single word, commenting on Myra Gordon’s latest Instagram post showcasing a New York City date night with her beau, Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey. Spoiler alert: it’s the type of comment that makes headlines.
Gordon, a former basketball player turned social media darling, dropped a series of chic photos featuring herself in a cozy green outfit and a sleek black ensemble, with some candid snaps alongside Maxey. Reese, never one to miss a style moment, chimed in with a simple yet effective “Cutieee,” paired with the obligatory heart-eyes emoji.
In case you’re wondering, yes, this qualifies as breaking news in the sports-entertainment crossover universe. Reese’s knack for delivering viral commentary is almost as sharp as her rebounding skills.
Social Media Queen Reese Strikes Again
This isn’t Reese’s first foray into Gordon’s comments section. The Sky star has a track record of sprinkling compliments under Gordon’s posts, making her unofficially the WNBA’s queen of Insta-love. It’s a refreshing subplot in a world where sports rivalries often take center stage.
Fans couldn’t get enough of Reese’s succinct approval. One user quipped, “Reese out here scouting for style tips mid-season,” while another joked, “Is this the sports version of the Met Gala commentary?”
From Bryce Young to Tyrese Maxey: Gordon’s Courtside Glow-Up
Before pairing up with Tyrese Maxey, Myra Gordon was linked to Panthers quarterback Bryce Young. However, her pivot to the NBA seems to suit her just fine. Between sharing glimpses of their cozy dates and her stylish wardrobe, Gordon has become a darling of both basketball fans and the fashion set.
And Maxey? Let’s just say the Sixers star is winning off the court too.
Angel Reese: Single and Sassy
Meanwhile, Reese has been candid about her own relationship status—or lack thereof. On her podcast Unapologetically Angel, she told comedian Funny Marco she’s laser-focused on self-improvement. “Why am I single? Just working on myself. … I don’t want to give half,” Reese said, adding that when she’s ready, she’s all in.
Oh, and if you’re wondering who might fit the bill for Reese? She’s looking for someone tall—like, 6’7” to 6’8” tall—and preferably NBA material. Duren, anyone?
Reese’s past dating rumors included Pistons center Jalen Duren, but she’s keeping things hush-hush about any lingering sparks. Instead, she’s busy being a WNBA superstar and the Internet’s unofficial style hype woman.
What’s Next for This Trio?
With Reese keeping fans guessing about her love life, Gordon’s stylish glow-up, and Maxey’s all-star season in Philly, this love triangle (of admiration, not drama) is one we can’t stop watching.
And in the words of Angel Reese herself: “Cutieee.” Sometimes, that’s all you need to say.
