Chicago Sky<\/a> star Angel Reese<\/a> was initially not included in the 2026 season of Unrivaled. However, she returned in early February and signed with her 2025 team, Rose BC.<\/p>\n

Rose BC made it to the playoffs, with Reese playing in three games and contributing to the team’s postseason push. Unrivaled’s former Defensive Player of the Year averaged 13.0 points, 10.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 blocks in the games she played.<\/p>\n

The Sky forward also made history<\/a>, becoming the fastest player to reach 200 rebounds in league history. It took her only 17 games to achieve the mark.<\/p>\n

Despite that, though, Reese was naturally not included on the All-Unrivaled teams. She simply didn’t play enough games to be considered for the award.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, Reese wasn’t surprised by the players who made it, particularly the First Team All-Unrivaled members. Her Rose BC teammate Chelsea Gray made it, along with Breeze BC’s Paige Bueckers<\/a> and Phantom BC’s Kelsey Plum<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After Unrivaled made the announcement, Reese commented on its post and wrote, “i mean DUH.”<\/p>\n

To Reese’s point, the three certainly deserve the recognition. Plum led Phantom BC to the top seed in the 2026 season, averaging 22.6 points and 5.0 assists while also hitting five game-winners.<\/p>\n

Bueckers, meanwhile, helped Breeze BC claim the fifth seed with averages of 22.1 points, 6.1 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game.<\/p>\n

For her part, Gray put up 24.2 points and 6.1 assists, along with four game-winners. She was second in the league in scoring and first in assists.<\/p>\n
