Following the loss, Reese remained non-committal about her future for next season. Reese is projected to be a lottery pick if she declares for the 2024 WNBA draft.

The forward has also left the door open for a potential return to LSU. ESPN’s Michael Voepel has Reese going to the Minnesota Lynx with the No. 7 pick in his latest mock draft.

“The Lynx don’t have an obvious hole on their roster, so it’s likely they will look for the best player available,” Voepel detailed in a March 12 story titled, “WNBA mock draft 2024: Clark a lock at No. 1, but who’s next?” “There have been many questions about how Reese’s game will translate at the pro level, but the Lynx could find value in her rebounding and defensive talents. (Could return to college for 2024-25.)”

“I’ve been through so much,” Reese explained. “I’ve seen so much. I’ve been attacked so many times, death threats. I’ve been sexualized. I’ve been threatened. I’ve been so many things, and I’ve stood strong every single time.

“I just try to stand strong for my teammates, because I don’t want them to see me down and not be there for them. I just want them to always know, I’m still a human. All this has happened since I won the national championship, and I said the other day, I haven’t been happy since then.”
