Angel Reese was one of the big winners of the inaugural season of Unrivaled, the three-on-three women's league that debuted this winter in Miami. She won the first-ever Defensive Player of the Year award for the league and her team, Rose BC, won the first-ever championship. Reese was unable to play in the title game due to a wrist injury but merely being on the roster comes with its advantages, both historical and financial.
