Concern Grows Over Angel Reese’s Health After All-Star Game Appearance

Angel Reese may have been all smiles during the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game, but one observant fan on social media is raising concerns about her long-term health — and it has sparked serious debate online.

Reese, playing in her second consecutive All-Star Game, helped lead Team Collier to a dominant 151–131 win over Team Clark (though Caitlin Clark sat out due to a groin injury). In just 17 minutes, Reese posted six points, nine rebounds, two assists, and one steal — a solid showing on paper.

However, one fan noticed something troubling after a simple layup Reese made in the first quarter. According to the fan, the way she came down on her left leg seemed unnatural — possibly due to the metal rod inserted years ago following a Jones fracture in college. The fan speculated the lingering effects could be limiting her explosiveness, reigniting old concerns about her mobility and long-term durability.

While Reese hasn’t publicly addressed the speculation, it’s worth noting she’s already battled injuries, including a wrist issue that cut her rookie season short. She briefly held the WNBA single-season rebound record before A’ja Wilson passed her.

Reese is undeniably a rising star, but as fans dissect every detail of her game, the question now is: can her body hold up under the weight of expectations?
