On April 3, 2024, Angel Reese announced her entry to the WNBA Draft via Vogue. The announcement was made just after two days of the N.C.A.A women's tournament where her team L.S.U lost to Iowa.

Over a Zoom call, she informed Vogue about her next course of action from her Baton Rogue, Louisiana, flat. The media house published her announcement with some of her photoshoots, stating that she has played the final game for L.S.U on Monday against Iowa.

In the series of pictures, Angel Reese posed on a basketball court with a ball and a crown.

In the interview, Angel Reese told Vogue,

"Of course, I like to do everything big. I didn’t want anything to be basic. I’ve done everything I wanted to in college. I’ve won a national championship, I’ve gotten [Southeastern Conference] Player of the Year, I’ve been an All-American. My ultimate goal is to be a pro—and to be one of the greatest basketball players to play, ever. I feel like I'm ready."

The 6'3" athlete posted some of the snaps from the shoot and fans took no time to share their remarks.

A fan named @mkwill12 commented on her Instagram post,
