Is Angel Reese about to make a sensational midseason return to Unrivaled?<\/p>\n
Following the confirmation of an unusual three-team trade on Monday that was of little apparent benefit to Rose BC, Reese’s former club, guard Kahleah Copper took to Threads<\/a> to send a cryptic post that contained only a smirking face emoji.<\/p>\n Copper, a star player for Rose and the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury, has created plenty of speculation with her post. It could be that the Rose’s strange decision to send forward Azura Stevens to Hive BC had an ulterior motive: that Reese has given her word to return to Unrivaled.<\/p>\n okay, I\u2019m all in on the Angel return speculation https:\/\/t.co\/kZivR4AVm5<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/54mtw2PrAN<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Myles (@MylesEhrlich) February 9, 2026<\/a> <\/p>\n Heightening the chatter around what Reese and Rose BC is that Rose’s roster on Unrivaled’s website has a “coming soon<\/a>” placard where Stevens’ player card used to be.<\/p>\n Reese was voted Unrivaled’s first Defensive Player of the Year<\/a>, and she helped Rose BC win the league’s inaugural championship last March. The two-time WNBA All-Star led Unrivaled in rebounding and anchored the 3-on-3 league’s best scoring defense in 2025.<\/p>\n Despite the excitement surrounding Reese’s potential comeback amid the uncertainty<\/a> of the 2026 WNBA season, Reese’s return to Unrivaled remains in a purely speculative stage.<\/p>\n Reese has yet to make any kind of public statement about her intentions as she continues to expand her profile<\/a> away from the hardwood. She ended the 2025 WNBA season with a back injury<\/a>\u00a0and missed 14 games in all as her Chicago Sky stumbled to a 10-34 record.<\/p>\n More news:<\/p>\n
