Recently, the 22-year-old, Maryland native was spotted by WNBA on her way to the stadium. To share her look with the fans, they took it to their official Instagram account and posted the glimpse with the caption, “Can’t even front @angelreese5, we felt that 😂 Even the Barbie has a time limit on how long she can wear heels, but per usual she’s serving on the game day look.”

Moving on, the spectators dived into ‘Bayou Barbie’s comment section to praise her outfit. “Hey yeah, Angel’s confidence is unmatched; some of y’all still sleep though. This game gonna open your eyes up,” said one fan. “Ooooo, god that woman is fine. Lord, thank you for blessing us with black women,” added another.

However, her outfit wasn’t the only thing capturing people’s attention. The post by the WNBA also featured Reese’s aching feet, which seemed to be under pressure as the hours dragged on. And people noticed it too. “She can’t even walk in them,” commented a spectator on Reese’s painful walk.

Moving on, another fan made a hilarious comment linking Reese’s footwear to modern fashion: “People originally wore heels for riding horses. They wore heels on their boots and shoes to help them stay in the stirrups. Now, heels are for fashion and killing people’s feet.” Overall, all these comments signify that Reese is truly a winner a couple of minutes before today’s matchup. Now, people are looking forward to her on-court performance.
