URGENT UPDATE: In a stunning mid-season move, Angel Reese is officially rejoining the Unrivaled 3×3 league for the remainder of the 2026 season. The announcement was made this morning, confirming what fans have speculated for weeks. Reese’s return is set to invigorate her former team, Rose BC, starting on February 20.
This development comes at a critical time for Rose BC, currently sitting in fifth place out of eight teams with a record of 5-6. With the playoffs beginning on February 28, Reese’s addition could be the spark they desperately need to secure a playoff berth. “A little more Reese could be just what the Rose needs,” experts suggest.
Reese hinted at her return during a recent episode of her podcast, “Unapologetically Angel,” where she discussed her desire to come back to Unrivaled. “Maybe you might see me, maybe you might don’t,” she teased, but now the wait is over. This move not only elevates Rose BC’s potential but also adds much-needed star power to the league, especially after significant injuries sidelined big names like Sabrina Ionescu and Napheesa Collier this season.
Unrivaled has recently made headlines, setting a new attendance record for women’s pro basketball at a tour stop in Philadelphia. However, TV ratings have struggled, making Reese’s return even more vital for generating excitement. “You entertain people, that’s why they get their butts in the seats to come and watch you,” said Teresa Weatherspoon, Reese’s former coach and current Unrivaled coach, emphasizing the impact of star players.
In addition to her basketball commitments, Reese has had a busy offseason, engaging in various ventures, including a role in the upcoming Netflix series “The Hunting Wives.” She also participated in Team USA’s training camp in December, preparing for the 2026 FIBA World Cup. Despite her packed schedule, Reese expressed her eagerness to return to Unrivaled. “I miss the development,” she stated on her podcast, highlighting her desire to grow as a player.
As the playoffs loom ahead with the championship scheduled for March 4, all eyes will be on Reese and Rose BC. Fans are already buzzing with anticipation about what this powerhouse addition will bring to the court. Stay tuned for more updates as this exciting story develops.
