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<\/a>, 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

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<\/a> stumbled to a 10-34 record.<\/p>\n
