Angel Reese and A’ja Wilson, two of the best players in the WNBA, will take their talents to a new field. The Chicago Sky star and the Las Vegas Aces icon will team up with one of the best NBA players of this generation: Steph Curry.
This time, however, neither will be on the court. At least not like they normally are. Reese and Wilson joined the cast of the upcoming animated film, “GOAT.”
“GOAT” follows Will (voiced by Stranger Things star Caleb McLaughlin), a small goat in an all-animal universe with ambitions of playing “roarball” (this universe’s version of basketball.

Reese announced on Wednesday that she will voice the character Propp. Wilson will play “Kouyate” in the movie co-produced by Steph Curry. Reese’s character is a polar bear, while Wilson will voice a crocodile. Wilson has experience acting in movies. She had a cameo as herself in Space Jam: A New Legacy.
The film will also feature Curry as Lenny Williamson, a giraffe, Gabrielle Union as Jett Fillmore, a black panther, Dwyane Wade as Rosette, a bull, and another Stranger Things star, David Harbour, as Archie Everhardt, a rhino.
Angel Reese continues to make moves off the court. The WNBA standout has become a fashion figure. First, she walked down the runway during Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. More recently, she invested in skincare brand Topicals alongside Nigerian singer Rema.
As for Wilson, she comes off winning her third WNBA championship with the Aces. She has been spotted in public with boyfriend Bam Adebayo, while also attending his Miami Heat games.
Steph Curry’s Unanimous Media and Sony Pictures Animation are behind the project.
