Reese has been a polarizing figure in the NCAA and the WNBA. It seems as though fans either love her or hate her. There is no in-between. It has been fun watching her succeed in the WNBA and now her sights are set on Rookie of the Year.
She's a dawg, you can't teach that. And now, she's a @WNBA All-Star âď¸
You deserve it, @Reese10Angel đđž#skytown pic.twitter.com/GAijtxOswC
