After an impressive collegiate career at LSU, Reese was drafted seventh overall by the Chicago Sky in the 2024 WNBA Draft. Despite being one of the top rookies in the league, comparisons between her and Indiana Fever standout Caitlin Clark have persisted, especially after Clark had an exceptional debut season.
