Angel Reese had every reason to celebrate this week… and it wasn’t just about her own rising stardom. Her younger brother, Julian Reese, just signed a deal with the Los Angeles Lakers as an undrafted free agent, marking a huge step forward in his basketball journey.
Julian, a standout forward from the University of Maryland, didn’t hear his name called during the two-night NBA Draft, but that didn’t stop the Lakers from recognizing his potential. Shortly after the draft concluded, the team scooped him up to add depth and youth to their roster.
The Maryland Terrapins were quick to post the exciting update on social media, proudly celebrating their alum. Angel, never one to hold back her support, reposted the announcement with a simple yet powerful word: “OPPORTUNITY.” She added, “COME ON JU,” hyping her brother and reminding everyone that the real work starts now.
From the NCAA spotlight to the NBA grind, Julian’s path is just beginning… and his sister Angel, already a powerhouse in her own right, is cheering him on every step of the way.
