Angel Reese highlighted three of her teammates at the Team USA training camp: Who were they?

The Team USA training camp has given WNBA and sports fans another opportunity to see the stars in action.

Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese was one of the players who participated in the event held in North Carolina from December 12 to 14, and she did not hesitate to highlight three of her teammates.

Reese praises and reveals what she learned from three teammates

The former LSU player was one of ten players who had not participated in training camp before. Joining her were Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers, Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston of the Indiana Fever, Veronica Burton of the Golden State Valkyries, Sonia Citron and Kiki Iriafen of the Washington Mystic, Rickea Jackson and Cameron Brink of the LA Sparks, and standout college players Lauren Betts (UCLA) and Juju Watkins (USC).

All of them also shared the court with Olympic medalists and outstanding veterans, something that Angel did not overlook and was grateful for the opportunity. After the camp, in statements to USA Basketball, the two-time All-Star Game player said:

“To be the best, you have to be with the best and you have to beat the best. So, I’m just thankful to be able to be here with the best,” Angel said, adding, “I’m not going to take this moment for granted. I am so thankful.”

Angel also admitted to learning a lot from her teammates during training and games and named three of them: Chelsea Gray, Kahleah Copper, and Aliyah Boston. “I take a lot of things from other people. From communication to even just ball handling,” she began explaining.

“Like being around players like Chelsea, where she does the behind the backs and you have to be ready for it. And just being able to feel Kah [Kahleah Copper]’s energy, being able to see Aliyah post up and post deep, and being able to take those things and implement it within yourself, I think it goes to show the growth and how we can just compete in the W and come back here [in] the USA and be together and be here for one goal that’s the championship and to win the gold medal,” Reese reflected.

The camp was led by head coach Kara Lawson and supervised by Duke University and her key assistants: Natalie Nakase of the Golden State Valkyries, Nate Tibbetts of the Phoenix Mercury, and Indiana Fever coach Stephanie White.

Meanwhile, the United States has already secured its ticket to the 2026 FIBA World Cup in Berlin after winning the 2025 Women’s AmeriCup. However, the team will have to compete in the qualifiers in March against Italy, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, Senegal, and Spain.
