WNBA - English
Angel Reese is making waves well before the 2025 WNBA season tips off. The Chicago Sky star forward recently showcased her dramatic body transformation, sending a bold signal to opponents that she’s leveled up her game physically.
Known for her grit on the court, Reese is showing that her work ethic off it is just as relentless. The 21-year-old posted a workout clip on Instagram that captured her grinding through an intense gym session.
Drenched in sweat and dressed in blue shorts and a white tee, she powered through dumbbell bench squats in her Reebok gear. But it was her defined abs that stole the spotlight.
“You see the abs okayyyy,” Reese wrote, proudly reposting the video from her trainer.
The fitness update follows a busy offseason that saw Reese compete in the Unrivaled league, where her team went on to win the inaugural title.
Although she exited before the semifinals due to a hand injury, the Miami-based event provided valuable on-court time and mentorship from WNBA legends like Lisa Leslie, who helped Reese elevate her post moves and offensive confidence.
A new-look Reese eyes a breakout season
With the Sky banking on a breakout campaign in 2025, Reese‘s development could be the key. She’ll be joined by new teammates and a refreshed lineup eager to compete in a season that promises heightened visibility for women’s basketball.
Her improved physique is just one part of a bigger push to take on more responsibility and become a franchise cornerstone.
While Reese is gearing up for her second WNBA season, another former NCAA standout is also turning heads with her offseason evolution. Caitlin Clark has been working diligently to add muscle and endurance in anticipation of the pro game’s physical demands. With expectations sky-high, Clark is doing her part to meet them.
Reese and Clark may have been rivals in college, but their parallel development is helping to redefine what it means to be a star in women’s basketball.
Mulkey reacts to a big transfer win
As Reese turns the page from her college days, her influence at LSU remains strong. Head coach Kim Mulkey was all smiles after securing a commitment from Kate Koval, a five-star transfer from Notre Dame. The move is expected to fortify LSU’s frontcourt heading into the new NCAA season.
Last season, Koval posted 5.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks per game. Her arrival comes as Notre Dame deals with multiple player departures, including Emma Risch, Olivia Miles, and Kylee Watson, who all entered the transfer portal following the team’s Sweet 16 exit.
Mulkey, known for her animated courtside energy and unwavering support for her players, celebrated Koval‘s decision by reposting a meme featuring her, Reese, and former LSU teammates dancing after the 2023 national championship.
Reese helped deliver the first women’s basketball title in LSU history that year, transferring from Maryland and quickly becoming one of the sport’s most recognizable faces.
Now, with the WNBA gaining steam and stars like Reese and Clark poised to lead a new generation, women’s basketball is on the cusp of unprecedented growth. Reese‘s transformation is more than just physical-it’s a sign of the elevated standard the league is embracing.

MLB playoffs 2025: Aaron Judge did his part, but the New York Yankees, once again, failed to win the World Series
NEW YORK — Statistically speaking, Aaron Judge had a nice day.In Game 4 of the ALDS, he went 2-for-4 with an intentional walk. His two outs were a strikeout and a 112-mph liner smoked right at the second baseman. He made a few nice plays in the field. Judge did not send one flying to the heavens — not every day is Christmas — but it was a productive trip to the office.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementYet he finished the evening in the same scattered fashion he has finished every year of his career. Disappointed, downtrodden, his eyes puffy and distant with the remnants of tears, his words low and tired. Once more, Judge’s Yankees did not win the World Series. The “October in the Bronx” dream is dead yet again.[Get more New York news: Yankees team feed]And as the current face of this […]

MLB playoffs 2025: The Phillies won a must-win game. Did the Dodgers lose one, too?
LOS ANGELES — However this NLDS plays out — whether the Los Angeles Dodgers hold on or the Philadelphia Phillies stage the comeback of these playoffs — many will point to Kyle Schwarber's 455-foot home run that hurtled through the air and over the right-field pavilion of Dodger Stadium as the turning point.Phillies manager Rob Thomson certainly did after the game, telling reporters the blast "sort of woke everybody up and got a lot of energy going in the dugout."It was an enormous home run, yes, one that seemed to fully break the Phillies out of a malaise that had so far cost them two games in the series. However, Schwarber went on to hit a second, less numerically impressive homer, and that one might be just as important because it might as well have gone on the Game 4 […]
