After the Chicago Sky defeated the Atlanta Dream, Reese was told about her All-Star selection moments before speaking to the media.
During her press conference, Reese got emotional and teared up while discussing her WNBA journey.
“They just told me that I’m an All-Star, I’m just so happy, I know the work that I put in, coming into this league so many people doubted me and didn’t think my game would translate, I wouldn’t be the player that I was in college or better or be worse, and I wouldn’t be who I am right now but I trusted the process and I’m thankful that I dropped to seven and was able to come to Chicago. It’s just a blessing, I can’t thank my teammates and my coaches enough for just believing in me.”
