Dwyane Wade Sends Strong Angel Reese Message that Should Worry the Rest of the WNBA

Dwyane Wade Sends Strong Angel Reese Message that Should Worry the Rest of the WNBA originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

Former Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade has long been a supporter of Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese, and continues to praise her for the tremendous growth she has shown as a player.

While Reese is still refining specific aspects of her game, she has already established herself as the WNBA's best rebounder, averaging 12.6 rebounds per game to complement her 14.0 points per game.

Her dominance on the boards has helped her transcend into a WNBA All-Star, and with head coach Tyler Marsh beginning to let the offense run through Reese, she is also showing flashes of being a great distributor.

With her offensive game coming along, Wade made sure to highlight it on a recent episode of "Time Out," and also had a message that may concern other teams as Reese still puts things together.

"Angel Reese is hooping, dog," Wade said. "Her game is opening up, her bag is opening up, her confidence is getting even higher. Like, she in that bag now. "She's playing the game like a more aggressive Draymond Green.

"When it comes to how they giving her the ball," Wade added. "How they're allowing her to run the offense, how she's making passes, how she's coming down the court, rebounding the ball, being the PG, but attacking, scoring, rebounding the ball, and all that."

While Reese is known for routinely putting up double-doubles, she is also leading the Sky in assists, which seems to be flying under the radar.

With her game growing and skillset getting even better, fans will get a chance to see her play against the best of the best on Saturday. She and Team Collier will be looking to take down Team Clark, who is without Caitlin Clark due to a groin injury.

The All-Star game is set to tip at 8:30 p.m. ET and air on ABC.
