Angel Reese has taken another dig at the WNBA.The Chicago Sky forward, who has criticised her WNBA salary before, has caused a social media stir after she responded to a fan on X who questioned whether she wants to be a model or a basketball player.Reese has once again taken issue with her salary in a post on XGetty“Do you wanna be a ig model or wnba player, pick one at this pont,” a fan asked Reese on X.To which Reese replied, “well no i’ll never pick because my dream job doesn’t pay me enough while my side job pays me 7 figures. anywayyy.”The 23-year-old, whose future in Chicago remains unclear after a dismal season, saw her post gain over 1.2 million views and over 17,000 likes.And to be fair to Reese, her WNBA contract pales in comparison to her reported earnings from sponsorships.The forward is currently on a four-year, $324,383 deal with the Sky, which leaves her with an average annual salary of $81,000.Meanwhile, her brand deals with the likes of McDonald’s, Hershey’s, Amazon, Beats by Dre, PlayStation, and Cash App have put her reported earnings well over a million dollars a year.Reese also enjoys a huge deal with Reebok, which released her signature shoe earlier this year — a clear demonstration of her marketing power given she has played just two seasons in the league.Reese set to earn big again with Unrivaled Season 2Meanwhile, Reese is set to top up her staggering earnings when she plays in Unrivaled at the beginning of next year.Unrivaled is a women’s professional 3-on-3 basketball league, which takes place during the offseason and features some of the WNBA’s biggest stars.Last year, players earned an average salary of $222,222, with some players like Reese earning even more as part of specific contracts.Cathy Engelbert is under huge pressure after public criticism of her leadershipGettyAngel Reese has never shied away from speaking about her contractGETTYWhile contracts for 2026 are yet to be released, the expectation is that players will earn even more this year, meaning Reese is in line for another huge six-figure payday.Reese is yet to sign up for Season 2, which tips off on January 5, 2026, but the expectation is that she will do as player announcements continue to be made.The number one pick in the WNBA draft this year, Paige Bueckers, will reportedly make $350,000 in next year’s Unrivaled, a sum that exceeds her entire rookie contract with the Dallas Wings.WNBA leadership under pressure as players call out WNBA Commissioner Cathy EngelbertThe imminent arrival of Unrivaled and Reese’s criticism of her pay comes amid a storm surrounding the WNBA after Napheesa Collier’s criticisms of the league’s leadership, in particular, WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert.“We have the best players in the world. We have the best fans in the world,” Collier told reporters, “but right now we have the worst leadership in the world.”“This past February, I sat across from [Engelbert] and asked how she planned to address the officiating issues in our league.“Her response was, ‘Well, only the losers complain about the refs.'”In the aftermath of Collier’s complaints, Reese backed the Minnesota Lynx star.“10/10. No notes!” she posted on X.Reese’s rival, Caitlin Clark, also broke her silence on the ongoing drama between the WNBA and its players.Stay up to date with the latest from the WNBA across all platforms – follow our dedicated talkSPORT USA Facebook page and subscribe to our talkSPORT USA YouTube channel for all the news, exclusives, interviews and more.
