Chicago Sky's Angel Reese clowned actor and record producer Michael Rainey Jr. with a courtside invite after he bungled a WNBA trivia in his recent appearance on the All-Star forward's podcast.
In the latest episode of 'Unapologetically Angel,' which dropped on Thursday, the Power Book II: Ghost star was quizzed about his WNBA knowledge and failed at it.
Rainey was asked by Angel Reese to name five players currently playing in the WNBA. Without batting an eyelash, he named Reese, then Skylar Diggins-Smith of the Seattle Storm. Rainey struggled thereafter, only coming up with the now-retired Diana Taurasi.
Reese took the opportunity to poke fun at Rainey by inviting him to sit at courtside in one of their games in the next WNBA season to shore up his knowledge of the league. He accepted the invite, even saying that he will watch while wearing a Sky Reese jersey.
