The 6-foot-3 Chicago Sky forward has always been a monster low-post rebounder.
Reyes was a walking double-double in his first season last year before a wrist injury cost him Rookie of the Year honors. Caitlin Clark.
However, his shooting form has always been widely mocked. Last season Reyes shot 39 percent from the field, 18.8 percent from 3-point range and just 73.6 percent from the free throw line while being derided for missing too many easy layups.
Reese seems determined to improve his shooting in year two, especially the corner 3.
Viral footage shows the 22-year-old practicing his catch and shoot, and the left-hander makes several 3-point attempts from the corner where he began practicing.
“Do it,” one fan posted on X.
Another added: “He’s in the gym working harder to get better. Haters gone. Let it go.”
Others, however, were less impressed.
Some suggested NBA Starring Ben Simmons, a notoriously bad 3-point shooter who often goes viral in the offseason for draining 3s, only once the season ends.
Others had more technical advice for Reese, suggesting that he still needs to work on his shooting mechanics, which still seem a little off, as well as his vertical.

One fan posted: “I see two things: 1) a pause between receiving and shooting. 2) very limited vertical. I hope the Sky coaching staff works with Angel to get better in both areas.”
“Releases very slowly,” added the latter. “Catch it with bent legs and release in one motion.”
“Paint dries faster than it can be released,” commented a third.
“He’s in Ben Simmons’ arc. It’s never been more over,” joked a fourth.
A fifth wrote: “Why does his right hand pass over his left hand after release? Just practice layups.”
“He needs to speed up his release and raise his shooting pocket to replicate it at game speed,” another weighed in.

Reese will be part of the Rose Basketball Club coached by Nola Henry and will be joined by teammates Chelsea Gray (Las Vegas Aces), Kale Kaper (Phoenix Mercury), Brittany Sykes (Washington Mystics), Lexi Hall (Indiana Fever). and Azura Stevens (Los Angeles Sparks).
“To be able to be in Miami from January to March and not have to go overseas” was part of the decision, Reyes said of her decision to play in the league, which takes place during the WNBA’s offseason.
“No one wants to go abroad. Most of us never want to go abroad, but some people unfortunately have to go abroad, so we can make six figures in three months, we can live in Miami. We can only get better.
“I can see two big players starting something, I think it’s amazing,” Reyes continued. 3v3 is something I love, I haven’t been able to play competitively but I think I can work on some of my individual skills because 3v3 reveals everything. So I’m excited for that.”
Following the conclusion of Unrivaled’s inaugural season, the 2025 WNBA regular season will begin on Friday, May 16.
