Angel Reese is takin’ a jab at her WNBA wage … joking (we expect) concerning the paltry paycheck she receives in comparison with another tremendous high-paid athletes!
Here is the deal … 22-year-old Reese performed within the Unequalled 3-on-3 hoops league (although she missed time with an damage), and her Rose BC staff received the ‘chip, with a 62-54 victory over Aliyah Boston‘s Vinyl staff, securing a $50k bonus.

After securing the bag, Reese went to X and wrote, “50K NEED DATTTTT” … prompting WNBA star Sydney Colston to reply with a joke, asking if she might maintain some money.
That is when Reese took slightly jab at her first-year WNBA wage.
“I am sorry to interrupt it to you however I’m on a rookie contract,” Reese stated, “and that 50k was slightly greater than half of my contract so I’ve to maintain that to myself.”
“Sorry 🙁 give me a number of years and I gotchu. Be Properly.”
This comes only a week after Reese on her “Unapologetically Angel” podcast threatened there may very well be a WNBA lockout if they do not get paid more cash.
“If y’all do not give us what we wish, we sitting out,” Reese stated.

Reese — who’s coming into her 2nd season with the Chicago Sky — signed a four-year rookie contract price round $324K … and is ready to make round $75K in 2025.
That wage would not embrace her numerous endorsement offers, like Reebok, McDonalds, Hershey’s, Beats by Dre, and extra.
The 22-year-old can be half proprietor of the USL Tremendous League soccer staff, DC Energy FC.
