Angel Reese flexed her music taste in front of her 4.6 million Instagram followers on Thursday. The Chicago Sky star uploaded a screenshot of the iconic jazz superhit "Just the Two of Us" by Bill Withers and Grover Washington Jr. on her Instagram story.

The iconic jazz superhit was released in Washington's 1980s album 'Winelight,' which is arguably responsible for bringing smooth jazz into mainstream music.

Reese has been playing for the Rose Basketball Club in the 3x3 basketball league, Unrivaled, during the WNBA offseason. She is among the 36 WNBA stars who decided to give Napheesa Collier and Breanna Stewart's project a try instead of heading abroad to play in an overseas league.

The Sky star made the right decision as Unriavled enjoyed great success on it's opening day. The fans packed the Wayfair Arena in Miami on Jan. 17 to watch the first two games of the very first Unrivaled season.

Rose BC has played four games so far and has a 1-3 record. Angel Reese made her Unrivaled debut on Jan. 17 against the Vinyl Basketball Club. She clocked in 13 minutes and scored 10 points, collected 12 rebounds and dished out four assists.
