Angel Reese, 2023's Most Outstanding Player and NCAA champ, had the night of her life when the Tigers took on the Hawkeyes for the national title. Reese, who had transferred to LSU after playing two seasons with Maryland, had a great Junior season. Not only did her numbers go up, but Reese also found a role for herself at LSU which was bigger than basketball.

Reese expressed her views regarding her personality following the championship game. In an interview with Malika Andrews, Angel talked about handling the haters. Reese has been dealing with negativity for a long time. Now that she is on a bigger stage, she has done a great job of turning negatives into postivies.

"I want to take on that role of being the Black woman that's going to stand up for the girls that may not have a voice. So I'm happy I can be the role model and the person everyone looks up to and even just the one that can say those things that other people may not want to say, so I'm just happy right now," said Reese.

Reese also looks at herself as an individual who doesn't let the media dictate her role on or off the court. Reese is determined to be an inspiration for women, as she goes on to become a bigger sports personality.
