LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Gifted American college basketball player Angel Reese has caused a stir with her outstanding abilities and accomplishments. Beyond her basketball skills, fans frequently ponder over her physical features, especially her height.

Fans are in disbelief at Angel Reese's height next to Shaquille O'Neal

Another best center in league history is Shaquille O'Neal, a four-time NBA champion. O'Neal, like Reese, played for the LSU Tigers before being selected by the NBA.

During the NBA legend's most recent visit to LSU, fans couldn't help but notice the height disparity between O'Neal and Reese in a picture of the LSU players taken together.

"How tall is she? She make Shaq look like a normal sized man," a user reacted inquisitively to the image.



 

The former Lakers star is one of the tallest players in league history at 7 ft 1 in (approx 2.16 m). Standing at 6 ft 3 in, Reese does not, however, appear ridiculously short in comparison to O'Neal, as most people do generally. Instead, she almost gives O'Neal the appearance of being a normal height.



 

Angel Reese's height compared to Caitlin Clark

The NCAA Finals in 2023 showcased competition at its best. Reese and Caitlin Clark, two extremely significant individuals, were vying for the honor.

Each has unique talents that are really impressive with Clark's scoring ability and shooting skills and similar comparisons were made between former LSU player O'Neal and Reese.

Reese is a point guard for the Iowa Hawkeyes and is 6 ft 3 in tall and has a wingspan of 7 feet. Clark has a 6 ft (1.83 m) tall stature and a 6 ft 4 in wingspan. She is taller than the NCAA Women's Division average height at her height.

Angel Reese's height plays a vital role in her basketball career

Reese's supremacy on the basketball court is unquestionably a result of her towering stature, which enables her to excel in both attack and defense.

She has a substantial edge over opponents due to her height (6 ft 3 in), particularly in terms of her ability to rebound and block shots.

Her tall stature makes it easy for her to reach the hoop and adds to her ability to command attention in the paint.

In the sport of basketball, being taller offers a number of benefits. It enables Reese to see farther, which makes it simpler to identify open teammates and make accurate passes.

Reese's height can also be helpful when defending opponents since it gives opponents a wider wing span, which makes it harder for them to properly shoot or pass the ball.

Angel Reese's progress has been greatly influenced by her height

Reese's progress in college has been greatly influenced by her height. She is a current SEC player for the LSU Tigers and has achieved several honors and records along the way.

Among Reese's accomplishments are being named a McDonald's All-American, being named the second-best player in her class by ESPN, and helping LSU to their first-ever national title.

Her dominance on the floor and popularity as a college basketball player are both certainly a result of her height.

Angel Reese's height and NIL agreements

Student-athletes now have more opportunities to make money off of their abilities owing to the introduction of NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) agreements in college sports.

Reese is in a good position to take advantage of these chances due to her exceptional height and on-court success. NIL contracts enable athletes to use social media to promote goods, land sponsorship deals, and make money.

Reese's height makes her a desirable candidate for prospective sponsors and endorsers and prominence as a top player in women's collegiate basketball.
