Reese is clearly a person of real style and she regularly wows fans with her outfits.

Last week, she sported glasses, skirt, high boots, and a customized jacket featuring basketball icon Michael Jordan holding the NBA championship trophy.

And now she’s been likened to Wonder Woman with this latest effort.

Mind you, many fans did point out on X, the site formerly known as Twitter, that she looked more like Xena: Warrior Princess.

The game between Rees’s team, the Chicago Sky, and Clark’s Indiana Fever was certainly a gripping affair.

The Sky claimed victory by one point, 88-87, despite being 15 points behind at one stage.

Reese scored a career-high 25 points and grabbed 16 rebounds.

One particularly striking moment was when Reese grabbed an offensive rebound, was fouled as she made the putback and hit the free throw to make the score 82-82 with three minutes remaining.

“I’m a dog,” Reese told ESPN after the game. “You can’t teach that.

“I’m going to go out and do whatever it takes to win every single night.

“My teammates rely on my energy.

“So, being able to continue to the energy even if we’re down, even if we’re up, that’s what I do.”

Clark praised her rival despite the disappointment of defeat.

“She ran really well in transition,” Clark said.

“She got a couple and-1s in transition, obviously, she played a really great game.

Caitlin Clark fever

CAITLIN Clark's impact was already felt by the WNBA even before she was drafted.

The Iowa college superstar went No. 1 overall to the Indiana Fever in a surprise to absolutely nobody.

The Indiana Fever had 36 of their 40 games in the 2024 season scheduled for national TV – up from 22 last year.

Teams also moved their games against the Fever to bigger arenas to cater for the extra ticket demand.

Clark helped the NCAA draw 18.9 million viewers for the women’s championship game, more than the 14.8 million who watched the men’s decider.

She has also already signed a deal with Nike worth upwards of $20 million.

“I think they definitely knew to be physical with us.

I think they probably watched us [against Atanta ] and saw that we fouled them nonstop.

“A team like this, you are not going to get away with that.”

There’s no doubt that Clark and Reese have boosted interest greatly in the WNBA.

A large enthusiastic crowd were at the game, with tickets selling for hundreds of dollars on secondary sites.
