The guest in the picture shared by Reese is Michael Rainey Jr., an actor and record producer. Rainey is known for his roles in TV shows like Orange Is the New Black, Power, and Power Book II: Ghost.

A former child actor, Rainey won his first-ever NAACP Image Award last year for his portrayal of Tariq St. Patrick in "Power Book II: Ghost," a crime drama series that aired from 2020 to 2024 on Starz.

Both Rainey and Reese are young, up-and-coming stars in their respective fields. After a successful college career at LSU, Reese began her WNBA career in Chicago, where she set multiple rebounding records. These include most rebounds in a single season, most offensive rebounds in a single season, and highest single-season rebounding average.

Aside from the hot start to her pro career, Reese has used her star power to boost a number of side ventures. Among these is her podcast, which now has around 134,000 subscribers on YouTube.
