Reese fans are undoubtedly intrigued by the subtle hints, even though there isn’t any concrete evidence to support the couple’s relationship. Before the speculation of her being with Jalen Duren, Angel Reese asserted she was single.
Reese, before the rumors emerged, was in a relationship with Cam’Ron Fletcher, a college basketball player who switched his allegiance from Florida State to Xavier earlier in the year. She admitted they were an item after LSU’s 2023 national title triumph. Reese is competing with Indiana Fever player Caitlin Clark for Rookie of the Year as she nears the end of an amazing rookie campaign with the Chicago Sky.
The former LSU standout is averaging 13.6 points, 12.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists, and 1.4 steals this season. As the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 20 double-doubles, she appears to be dating an NBA double-double machine after her most recent video went viral. Duren averaged 13.8 points, 11.6 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 61.9% from the field last season for the Pistons-the sixth-best percentage in the NBA.
