Angel Reese, a WNBA powerhouse and Chicago Sky forward, seems to be trading her signature rebounds for something a little more… rhythmic. On a recent episode of her podcast, Unapologetically Angel, Reese found herself asking American rapper Sexyy Red for an unusual assist—not in basketball, but in twerking.
Yes, you read that right. Reese, who’s made a name for herself dominating on the court, now wants to conquer the dance floor with moves that have absolutely zero place in the paint.
“You gonna teach me how to twerk?” Reese asked Red, dropping the question like a no-look pass.
Caught off guard, Red quipped back, wondering why Reese wasn’t already perfecting her moves behind closed doors. Reese’s response? Pure gold.
“I’m just a child of God,” she declared, her voice dripping with mock innocence. “My name is Angel, I don’t be doing that.”
Ah, yes. Because if we’ve learned anything about basketball players, it’s that they spend their off-hours reading scripture and practicing free throws—not testing the limits of TikTok dance trends.
Too Busy for Twerking? Not Quite
While Reese’s schedule is busier than a fast break, the 3X3 basketball star hinted she might need to put her twerking dreams on hold for a bit. Training for the inaugural Unrivaled League in Miami has her locked in the gym, fine-tuning her jump shots alongside teammates like Chelsea Gray and Lexie Hull.
Still, let’s not underestimate Angel Reese. After all, if she can pull down double-doubles like clockwork, how hard could it be to master a well-timed booty pop?
The Unrivaled League debuts January 17, so for now, Reese’s dancing ambitions might have to simmer on the bench.
Angel Reese vs. Sexyy Red: The Marriage Debate
Twerking wasn’t the only hot topic during the podcast. Reese and Red also waded into the murky waters of love and marriage. While Reese preached optimism—complete with a “knight in shining armor” fairytale—Red wasn’t buying it.
“All men cheat,” declared the rapper, with the conviction of someone who’s read one too many DMs from taken guys.
Reese, ever the romantic, pushed back. “You can’t put that stereotype on one man… you just gotta believe, have hope, have faith. It’s good men out here!”
Red wasn’t convinced. The Pound Town artist remains firmly Team Cynicism, believing wedding vows are just fancy words with no expiration date on bad behavior.
What’s Next for Angel Reese?
Whether Reese perfects her twerk or not, her fans are here for the ride. As she gears up for Miami and her Unrivaled League debut, one thing’s clear: Angel Reese knows how to keep things interesting. From battling stereotypes to (possibly) mastering the art of twerking, she’s proving there’s more to her than just basketball.
And who knows? Maybe one day we’ll see her celebrating a game-winning shot with a move straight out of Red’s playbook. But for now, she’s sticking to being a child of God… with a growing curiosity for the “art.”
