Former LSU women's basketball star Angel Reese, who is now playing for the WNBA's Chicago Sky, can add one more college achievement to the lengthy list.
LSU announced Friday that Reese is now a graduate of LSU, something that the 6-foot-3 forward alluded to earlier this week. She can now add a bachelor's degree to her 2023 national title and SEC Player of the Year achievements.

Reese, a Baltimore native, transferred to LSU after spending her first two seasons at the University of Maryland.
On Friday, LSU recognized Reese's graduation with a simple congratulatory post on social media.
"Angel Reese – an LSU grad," the post said.

While Reese hasn't said whether she'll be in attendance at the graduation ceremony on Saturday, it seems very unlikely considering the Sky play the Dallas Wings in Arlington, Texas, at 7 p.m. on Saturday. She had 12 points and eight rebounds in her debut for the Sky earlier this week.
