While Reese is all about players' salaries increasing under the upcoming CBA, she was caught off guard by American rapper Chrisean Rock. During an episode of "Unapologetically Angel: on March 11, while discussing the pay gap, Reese said that the WNBA players want to get paid their true worth.

Rock said that Reese and the other players do the same thing that LeBron James does on the court.

"Because you’re doing exactly what LeBron is doing," she said.

Reese laughed off the comment but said that although a lot goes into how salaries are paid, the money was coming in the WNBA as well.

WNBA players could reportedly go on a lockout if their demands aren't accepted by the league. Since the entrance of Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese from the 2024 draft class, the league's viewership has seen a big increase.

Last year, the league also signed an 11-year, $2 billion TV deal, which is expected to give a major boost to the players' salaries as the league advances. The last date for the salary negotiations for the WNBPA is Oct. 31.
