Angel Reese took a break from the WNBA spotlight to enjoy some NFL action on Sunday night, joining her Atlanta Dream teammates at the Baltimore Ravens’ clash against the Atlanta Falcons. With the Dream preparing to face the Golden State Valkyries in the WNBA Finals starting Saturday, the outing offered Reese a chance to enjoy the football atmosphere before turning her attention back to basketball.
Despite being a Maryland native and a Ravens supporter by hometown association, Reese opted for red and black rather than her local team’s colours. The outfit matched the Falcons’ colours, adding a local touch to her appearance at the game. With both the Falcons and the Atlanta Dream representing the same city, Reese’s choice brought together her current basketball home and a night of NFL action.
