Angel Reese works on 3-point shooting ahead of WNBA draft
In preparation for her professional career, Reese sought the help of some of the NBA’s most well-known trainers. She first worked with Victor Wembanyama’s trainer, Tim Martin. Most recently, she has been working with LeBron James and Kevin Durant’s trainer, Chris Brickley, at his Black Ops Basketball training facility in New York.
Angel Reese’s focus during these sessions has been her 3-point shooting. In her four years at college, the forward made just 5-of-32 attempts. However, in a video shared on her Instagram, Reese could be seen consistently bucketing her 3s.
Chris Brickley even noted that she is shooting from the NBA 3-point line, which is 23 feet and 9 inches. Meanwhile, the WNBA 3-point line is 22 feet and 1.75 inches from the board.
Most draft assessments of Angel Reese noted her offensive woes, which was one of the reasons for her low draft position. She is predicted to be a No. 7 or No. 8 pick. With her working on her weakness, it will be interesting to see if there will be any change.
The 2024 WNBA draft is scheduled for April 15 at the Brooklyn Music Academy in New York. It will be broadcast live on ESPN and streamed on DirecTV, Fubo, Hulu + Live TV and Sling.
The Indiana Fever has the No. 1 pick in the draft and is largely expected to pick Caitlin Clark.
