5 WNBA players who can become Victoria’s Secret models after Angel Reese ft. Sophie Cunningham
1) Sophie Cunningham
At 6-foot-1, Sophie Cunningham easily has the features to walk the Victoria’s Secret runway with the top models in the business. Moreover, she has explicitly expressed her wish to follow in Angel Reese’s footsteps, making her an ideal candidate for the brand.
While Cunningham has done minimal work as a model, she took no time at all to endear herself to the Indiana Fever fanbase and has more than enough pull to justify an appearance for Victoria’s Secret.
2) DiJonai Carrington
Known for her bold outfits and silky smooth hair, fans appreciate Carrington for her style and fierce attitude. These are qualities that are also celebrated by modern fashion brands, making her an easy pick to succeed Angel Reese as the next WNBA player to work with Victoria’s Secret.
3) Satou Sabally
Born in New York and raised in Germany, the German-American player’s unique background and sharp features give her a look akin to many famous models. Sabally has also dabbled in fashion and modeling campaigns for various brands, giving her the credentials to potentially work with Victoria’s Secret in the future.
4) Cameron Brink
At 6-foot-4 with a slender build and sharp facial features, Cameron Brink has been drawing comparisons with supermodels ever since she first stepped into the WNBA. Her first two seasons have been marred by injury, and while this has held her back from basketball, Brink has used this time to build her brand off the court.
Easily one of the most recognizable young athletes in basketball, Brink would be a strong candidate to follow Angel Reese’s lead and model for Victoria’s Secret.
5) Skylar Diggins
One of the biggest stars in the WNBA, Skylar Diggins, has been one of the faces of women’s basketball for years. Her star power extends beyond the court as she has become known for her striking features and confident presence, qualities that any brand could utilize.
Moreover, Diggins has experience with modeling, having worked with several brands, including Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS. Diggins is easily more suited to be a Victoria’s Secret model than most WNBA players.
