The rivals have faced off three times this season but will become All-Star teammates later this month, and fans are excited to see what they can do together.
In the meantime, Reese has been stacking up double-doubles, having grabbed her 14th consecutive one in a 78-69 Chicago Sky win over the Atlanta Dream on Wednesday. She made an appearance on ESPN’s ‘NBA Today’ after the game and, at one point, was asked about teaming up with Clark.
“It’s going to be really cool,” she said. “I know so many fans are going to come out to watch both of us. I know a lot of people are going to be able to come to Phoenix. I’m sure it’s already sold out.
“We’re going to be playing together for a while, so it’s not gonna be the [last] time,” Reese predicted. “I know we’ll be All-Stars again. Hopefully 2028, we’ll be Olympians together, too.”
Angel Reese Is Focused On Making The Playoffs
Angel Reese also revealed that she plans to head to Paris to watch the Summer Olympics, with the WNBA to take a break after the All-Star Game on July 20 and resume on August 15.
She and Clark will rekindle their rivalry when the league resumes play at the end of the Olympics. They’re battling it out for the Rookie of the Year Award, with both of them making compelling cases. However, Reese claims her focus is on the playoffs.
“My teammates always say stuff about it, but I really try to have tunnel vision and focus on what the thing is,” she remarked. “Getting into the playoffs is something I want to do.”
