Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese is staying busy, announcing yet another high-profile partnership as she gears up to become the first-ever professional athlete to walk in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show next week.
The WNBA star will take to the lingerie company's catwalk in New York on Tuesday, October 15th.
"Stepping into a dream: From Angel to a Victoria Secret ANGEL," Reese posted to Instagram on Thursday. "I'm finally getting my wings — I'll be walking the Victoria's Secret 2025 runway show for the first time, and it feels like destiny. Wings on, heels ready."
Hitting the runway is just the latest entry on Reese's growing resume, with the 23-year-old most recently stepping in as the new face of Juicy Couture and launching a signature shoe with Reebok while becoming the cover star of the WNBA edition of NBA 2K26.
Even more, she'll soon make her feature film debut, playing herself in a cameo in the upcoming political thriller A House of Dynamite, which drops on Netflix on October 24th.
But first, Reese will make Victoria's Secret Fashion Show history.
"Angel Reese, welcome to the runway," Victoria's Secret wrote in a promotional post on Thursday. "The first professional athlete angel... major is an understatement."

The 2025 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show will air live on at 7 PM ET on Tuesday, October 15th on Prime.
The 2025 WNBA season is over for Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese, but the 23-year-old star is still making headlines, with Reebok set to drop her signature Angel Reese 1 sneakers on Thursday.
The Angel Reese 1 is a cornerstone of Reebok's re-entry into the basketball market, with the sportswear giant engineering the signature shoe for on-court performance by including features like responsive cushioning and added upper support.
Inspired by the brand's classic Mobius line, the shoes will hit the shelves in three colorways — an iridescent white "Diamond Dust," a bold pink "Mebounds," and a black and white "Receipts Ready" — with Reese's personal logo incorporated into the design.
Reese first signed with Reebok as an NIL athlete at LSU in 2023, a little over six months after winning the NCAA championship with the Tigers.
This week's rollout follows the July sneak peek of the signature sneakers worn by Reese on the cover of NBA 2K26's WNBA Edition.
"This isn't just a shoe, it's my style, my story, and my stamp on the game," Reese said in Reebok's press release. "I wanted to design a basketball shoe that elevates performance, innovation, style, and creative expression, all at once."
"Reebok and I built something that's true to who I am, and I hope it pushes others to stand in their power too."
How to buy the Angel Reese 1 Reebok sneakers
All three colorways of the Angel Reese 1 sneakers will be available for a retail price of $120 beginning at 10 AM ET on Thursday at Reebok.com as well as in select stores.
NBA 2K is going all in on the WNBA, with the popular video game expanding its MyTEAM mode this week to allow athletes from both leagues to star on the same team when the 2K26 edition drops next month.
"MyTEAM is where competition meets a basketball fan's wildest imagination," explained Visual Concepts VP of NBA development Erick Boenisch. "By integrating the WNBA into one of our most popular modes, we're not only giving players the opportunity to customize their all-time dream rosters but shining a spotlight on some of the game's most iconic hoopers. We're looking forward to giving our players a new and deeper way to engage with the WNBA."
"Players can now mix and match current superstars and legends from both leagues, and compete with more dream lineup combinations than ever before," NBA 2K said in Thursday's release.
"Pair Paige Bueckers with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, throw a lob from Sheryl Swoopes to Shaquille O'Neal, or run a pick-and-roll with Angel Reese and Carmelo Anthony," the franchise continued.
NBA 2K has ramped up its WNBA integration significantly since the league's debut in the 2K20 edition, expanding from Play Now and Season modes to the upcoming 2K26 version's virtual press conferences, pre-draft interviews, social media refreshes, and Top-10 player ratings.
How to buy the WNBA Edition of NBA 2K26
With Chicago Sky sophomore Angel Reese playing cover star, the WNBA Edition of NBA 2K26 will be sold exclusively in physical form at GameStop, dropping along with the other versions of the popular video game on September 5th.
Fans can purchase the WNBA version through the gaming retailer's presale now.
Chicago Sky star Angel Reese announced her first signature shoe in style on Wednesday, debuting the Reebok sneaker design as the cover star of the WNBA edition of NBA 2K26.
The 23-year-old is now the sixth WNBA player to grace an NBA 2K cover, as well as the second Sky player, joining league legend Candace Parker.
"To be cemented in NBA 2K history is a special honor that reflects not only my journey, but also all the veteran WNBA players who have paved the way before me and the growing impact of the league as a whole," Reese said in a statement.
Following in the recent footsteps of 2K25 star and reigning WNBA MVP A'ja Wilson, Reese posed for the popular video game cover in her new "Angel Reese 1" sneakers, effectively announcing both her shoe design and her NBA 2K collaboration with the game's Wednesday cover drop.
"Being on the cover of NBA 2K26 and debuting my first-ever signature shoe with Reebok on that cover, the Angel Reese 1, is more than a milestone — it's a statement," Reese said in a release. "It's about representation and showing young girls they can be confident, bold, and take up space unapologetically."
The WNBA sophomore forward also donned the "Diamond Dust" colorway during Chicago's 87-76 win over the Dallas Wings on Wednesday, showing the iridescent white sneakers in action.
Reese first partnered with Reebok in 2023, just before her senior season at LSU, with this week's reveal coming just over a month after the pair released a player edition shoe.
When her sneakers officially drop, Reese will become just the second WNBA player to have a Reebok signature shoe, joining legend Rebecca Lobo who paved the way in 1997.
How to purchase NBA 2K26 and the Angel Reese 1s
Though an on-sale date is still in the works, Reebok does plan to drop the Angel Reese 1s in 2026.
While NBA 2K26 will be release across gaming platforms on September 5th, the WNBA version will again be a limited physical edition of the game.
Fans can buy the WNBA Edition, featuring Reese, exclusively at GameStop on September 5th — though the gaming retailer's presale is on now.
