Angel Reese Compares Chicago Sky Coach Teresa Weatherspoon to LSU’s Kim Mulkey

Former LSU standout Angel Reese is less than a week away from making her WNBA regular-season debut for the Chicago Sky.

The No. 7 overall pick in April’s WNBA Draft, Reese took some time on Wednesday to answer a few questions after the Sky concluded their preseason slate earlier in the week.

At multiple points during the sit-down with the media, Reese referenced former LSU coach Kim Mulkey while speaking about her new head coach, Teresa Weatherspoon.

“I love Coach [Weatherspoon], she’s kind of like Coach Mulkey,” Reese replied to a question about her new coach, via Chicago State of Mind Sports . “Being able to be a tough coach that you have to have thick skin [around]. You also have to be willing to be coached by her.

“She pays attention to detail. She’s a legendary coach, a legendary player.”
