Atlanta Dream star Angel Reese spent time with her fellow WNBA star Paige Bueckers at the COACH event on Wednesday. Natalia Bryant, the late Kobe Bryant’s daughter, conducted an interview with the two. Natalia hosted the event and asked the two basketball stars about major moments in their careers so far.

The brand is carrying on its spring 2026 campaign, “Explore Your Story.” The campaign has two key activations: Coach Story Sessions, a live conversation series, and the Coach Tabby Tour: Explore Your Story Edition.

The Coach Story Sessions have featured conversations with other notable young figures, including Storm Reid, Marley Dias, Suni Lee, and Tara Davis-Woodhall. Reese and Bueckers are the latest additions to the featured voices, as they “discussed their careers, confidence, and how fashion plays a role in expressing their identities.”

Natalia posted photos of the event on Friday evening and expressed how her experience was on Instagram.

“I had the best time hosting Coach Story Sessions and connecting with @angel.reese & @paigebueckers !! @coach #coachpartner #couragetobereal,” Bryant posted.

Natalia was complimented in the comments by Reese and Bueckers, who also reassured her about how well she conducted herself during the event.

“literally a QUEEN,” Reese commented.

“No notes, you ate queen 🥰” Bueckers said.

The Chicago Sky’s Real Thoughts on the Angel Reese Trade

For the 2026 WNBA season, fans will see a new version of Angel Reese after the Chicago Sky traded her to the Atlanta Dream. After two seasons in Chicago, the former LSU star will have a new WNBA chapter.

According to a report from the Daily Mail, however, Reese’s former team is relieved to see her go to Atlanta.

“There has been so much apprehension between the team and her, and everyone is happy that they don’t have to deal with her various controversies, whether she brings it on herself or otherwise,” Russ Weakland and Ben Nagle of Daily Mail reported.

“There is no love lost, and when Angel returns for a game with her new team, she will be the enemy, but everyone with the Sky is very happy that she is gone. … They were getting sick of her and to make this trade was very much needed for the health of the organization moving forward.”

The first game between the Sky and the Dream will be on June 9 at Wintrust Arena. It will also be Reese’s first game back at her former home court. Fans are already eager to watch how the dynamic between the two will unfold.
