Angel Reese declares for the WNBA draft, leaving LSU
SEC Player of the Year Angel Reese, also known as the "Bayou Barbie" announced today on social media she is leaving Louisiana State University and declaring for the WNBA draft. The decision comes on the heels of LSU's loss to the University of Iowa earlier this week. In a post-game news conference, Reese detailed the death threats and harassment she received leading up to the highly-anticipated rematch, saying in part she "hasn't had peace" since winning the 2023 championship last year. KTVU's Heather Holmes and Joey Horta discuss Reese's decision to go pro early with Shaun Fletcher, Public Relations and Sport Communications Expert at San Jose State University.
