La légende NBA Tim Duncan (gauche) et la rookie WNBA Angel Reese (droite)

While in Paris this summer on the sidelines of the Olympic Games, Angel Reese recently returned to WNBA duty, and with flying colors.

Her performances also led her to answer a question about… Tim Duncan, and a possible helping hand from him.

It seems that it really doesn’t take her much time to recover from her emotions. On vacation in Paris a few days ago, Angel Reese didn’t hide her annoyance after encountering a few problems.

However, since her return to the WNBA courts, she has continued to shine under the colors of the Chicago Sky, as was the case against the Mercury last Sunday:

Angel Reese discusses a possible workout with Tim Duncan

Even if his shooting skills and the collective record of his franchise (11-16) leave something to be desired, Angel Reese is impeccable in one area, namely rebounding.

I can’t really choose who I workout with, so I just make sure I’m ready for the moment.

While the offseason seems a long way off in the WNBA, the 22-year-old center rightly says she wants to stay focused on her performance and that of her team.

That said, she’s unsurprisingly up for a future collaboration with Tim Duncan, whose advice on rebounding she seems fond of. And after all, who better to give her than the Spurs icon.

Indeed, even if he never finished a season as the NBA’s best rebounder, the Big Fundamental posted a career average of 10.8 rebounds.

So he would most certainly have valuable advice to offer his younger counterpart.

It remains to be seen whether her call will reach him and whether he will get a favorable response from her.

Although a rookie, Angel Reese already ranks as the best rebounder in the WNBA, without being satisfied with her current level in the field.

Thus, she would welcome the help of an expert such as Tim Duncan to continue to improve.
