Angel Reese is currently around the mid-way point of her rookie year with the Chicago Sky. Despite her brief tenure with the squad, there’s no denying that she’s already formed solid bonds with her teammates — both past and present.
One particular player who Reese grew close to early on in the 22-year-old’s rookie year is Kysre Gondrezick, who, incidentally, was waived by the Sky early in the season.
On Sunday, Gondrezick shared a photo of herself with Reese during a recent meet-up, which prompted an emotional reaction from the former LSU superstar.
Reese, who is currently averaging 13.6 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 1.4 steals per game, joined the Sky in April after she was selected as the No. 7 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA draft. Gondrezick was waived on June 28, which means that the two were teammates for barely two months.
Despite their brief time together with the Sky, however, it is clear that these two formed quite a friendship on and off the court. They may no longer see each other every day in practice, but there’s no denying that their relationship is the type that is able to survive the test of time and distance.
