Sun's Aneesah Morrow Ready for Angel Reese Matchup After WNBA Draft, '2 Dogs Clashing'

LSU Tigers' Aneesah Morrow is ready for a matchup against former teammate Angel Reese after being drafted No. 7 overall by the Connecticut Sun.

"I'm looking forward to a matchup against Angel. That's my former teammate—love her to death—but I know there's gonna be two dogs clashing on the floor, trying to go up in there and get as many rebounds as we can," Morrow said after she was drafted on Monday.

Before Morrow's callout, Chicago Sky forward Reese gave a shoutout to the No. 7 pick—the same pick she was selected just one year ago.

The 6'1" forward began her college career at DePaul, where she set a career-high 13.8 rebounds per game as a freshman and 25.7 points per game as a sophomore. She finished her time with the Blue Demons shooting 46 percent from the field.

Morrow played her final two seasons at LSU, overlapping with Reese—who went on to lead the WNBA in rebounds per game during her rookie season.

In her final year with the Lady Tigers, Morrow averaged a team-best 13.5 rebounds and 18.7 points per game, finishing with 485 total boards.

The season before Morrow arrived, Reese helped lead LSU to a national title, averaging 15.4 rebounds and 23 points per game with a total of 555 rebounds on the year.

The Connecticut Sun will face the Chicago Sky for the first time on June 15 at home, where fans will get to see Morrow and Reese go head-to-head for the first time in WNBA.
