Angel Reese will make her season debut in Unrivaled for Rose BC on Friday. Unrivaled announced on Wednesday that Reese would return to the 3-on-3 league for the rest of the season.
The 23-year-old WNBA star played for Rose BC in Unrivaled’s inaugural season last year. Reese did not initially sign to play in the league this season but filled a vacant roster spot with Rose BC after Aari McDonald was ruled out for the season with a right leg injury.

Last season, Reese led the league in rebounding, with 12.1 per game, recorded eight double-doubles, posted the first 20-20 game in the league and was named Defensive Player of the Year.
Rose BC won the championship despite Reese missing the semifinals due to a hand injury. Her success in Unrivaled carried over to the WNBA last season. In her second season with the Chicago Sky, Reese averaged 14.7 points, 12.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.5 steals per game.
Reese will also make her U.S. senior team debut in the FIBA Women’s World Cup qualifying tournament on March 11.
