Angel Reese continues to chart new territory as a women’s sports star, launching multiple side careers from a very young age while also charting her own course in the WNBA. The latest example came in Reese’s recent comments about how she will handle media this season as she starts fresh in Atlanta.

During an appearance on First Lady Michelle Obama’s podcast, the oft-maligned Reese suggested she could be open to taking fines in certain instances rather than face aggressive reporters.

“I’ll take a fine before I have to go media and feel like my back is against the wall,” she said.

Obama’s brother and co-host Craig Robinson supported the idea and, half-jokingly, offered to pay any fines Reese received as a result.

During her time at LSU and early in her WNBA career, Reese was a frequent target of vicious criticism and even fabricated headlines, largely due to her ties to Caitlin Clark. In college, Reese admitted that the scrutiny weighed on her psyche. Reese worked with the Chicago Sky on a trade to the Atlanta Dream this offseason to reset her career.

And in an episode of A Touch More, USWNT legend Megan Rapinoe offered a strong endorsement of Reese’s updated approach.

Idiocy.

Sure, keep Vandersloot occupying a roster spot and pay her 750K while she can't even play, but cut a healthy first round draft pick with potential, who was also one of the preseason standouts.

How do we watch the game? It’s not popping up on League Pass?
