Angel Reese has a type, and she has a very good reason for it.

The Chicago Sky rookie has been the subject of dating rumors for several weeks as she’s thought to be in a relationship with Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren.

It appears the folks claiming she’s hooked up with Duren might be on to something, given that Reese has admitted she will only date athletes, specifically basketball players.

The former LSU star recently launched her own podcast, called ‘Unapologetically Angel,’ where she discussed her love language with cohost Maya Moore.

Reese said she treasures time over everything else because she’s independent and can support herself. She’s really after a relationship in which someone can be generous with their time. The ex-Lady Tiger admitted that is also a challenge because she only dates athletes, and scheduling can be an issue.

“That’s hard too because I kind of only, well, I only mess with athletes and usually it’s always been like that,” she said.

Reese added she’s mostly into basketball players as she’s 6ft 3in, which makes sense.

“I’m 6’3”; where am I finding [a man]?” she asked Moore. “Maybe I need to find me a little lawyer that’s like 6’.” 

“A little finance bae,” Moore joked.

Angel Reese did not confess to hooking up with Duren, but she has previously hinted at a relationship with the NBA big man. At 6’10”, he certainly fits the criteria.

The Sky forward dated Florida State basketball player Cam’Ron Fletcher last year, but they broke up sometime before she was drafted.
