The details on the rookie contract of Angel Reese have been revealed after she was drafted No. 7 overall by the Chicago Sky in the 2024 WNBA Draft.
According to Spotrac, Reese will make $324,383 over the next four seasons. Reese will start off her rookie season with a salary of $73,439 for the year.
That number will increase to a $93,636 team option by her fourth season. Reese will earn slightly less in her first WNBA season than the players who were selected with picks No. 1-4, as they will make $76,535 as rookies.
These numbers still pale in comparison to what players in the NBA make as rookies. The top pick on the men’s side will earn a staggering $10.1 million in their first year. (This is wild)
