It’s the partnership that just seemed to make too much sense.
WNBA rookie sensation Angel Reese and Reese’s, the popular candy, are finally partnering up after fans have been calling for it, with the hooper now selling merchandise with her name on it with the candy’s iconic branding.
“The connection between my name and the Reese’s brand was obvious, but it went deeper than that,” Reese told Boardroom about the partnership . “My fans started calling themselves ‘Reese’s Pieces,’ and after I kept seeing it on social, I started engaging with some of my fans about it.”
The official name for the new candy-inspired line of Reese merchandise is being dubbed the Angel Reese x Reese’s Pieces Logo Collection, which she announced in a post on X on Wednesday morning along with a short video.

Reese had originally posted in June, “Reese’s pieces where yall at?????”
The post caught the attention of the popular Hershey brand candy’s account on X which responded to her a few days later with a post that included an image of a Reese’s Pieces candy with headband on top of it.
“The fans really made this happen,” Reese said. “This collection is for my Reese’s Pieces — who’ve been with me every step of the way.”
Reese has had quite an impressive rookie campaign since she was selected seventh overall at this year’s WNBA draft, becoming the fastest in league history to reach 20 double-doubles and recently scoring 19 points and pulling down a career-high 20 rebounds.
