A post on the official account of the track and field star read, “These ladies are giving us look after look.” While the Front Office Sports page on X reported the greatest collegiate basketball player dressed in Prada, the post also mentioned that it was the very first time Prada had collaborated with this sports industry.

Angel Reese, an American basketball player for the Chicago Sky, on the other hand looked mesmerizing with her glittery dress and her nails and teeth grills jewellery done by She Polished and Essential Grillz. One of the posts on X awed her beauty by writing, “Shut down the Orange Carpet because Angel Reese just cleared everyone at the WNBA Draft.” The WNBA Draft was therefore a huge success, as it spread wid e across the American audience who follow sports. Just like Gabby Thomas, who in spite of her own descent of accolades, is a great supporter of women eyeing other sports, there were many others too who acknowledged the NBA Draft.
