Reese appears to be taking her newfound stardom in stride. For a collegiate athlete who is not even old enough to legally purchase a drink, receiving congratulatory messages from two of the biggest musicians on the planet had to have been a very surreal moment.

When is Angel Reese eligible for the WNBA Draft?

Angel Reese is coming off of the best season of her collegiate career. In addition to winning the National Championship, she was named the NCAA Tournament's Most Outstanding Player and a consensus first-team All-American. Reese averaged 23.0 points, 15.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.6 blocks per game while shooting 52.5% from the field.

Her rivalry with Caitlin Clark brought more attention to women's college basketball than the sport has likely ever seen. The two stars could once again be on a collision course as both are set to return to the NCAA for at least one more season.

WNBA rules stipulate that a player must be 22 years of age or set to turn 22 years old, during the calendar year of the WNBA Draft. Reese will not turn 21 until next month, meaning that she will not be eligible to enter the WNBA until 2024, at the earliest. Before setting her sights on her professional career, Reese will look to lead the LSU Tigers to another national championship. She is currently a safe choice to be a top-three selection in the 2024 WNBA Draft.
