With bruising backdown play, fancy footwork and fashion sense all her own, LSU star Angel Reese has become the talk of the town.
Known as “Bayou Barbie,” Reese has been lighting up scoreboards with a level of post proficiency that Baton Rouge hasn’t since Shaquille O’Neal. And buoyed by her play, the Tigers earned a spot in just their second Final Four.
Reese isn’t the only star making waves in Baton Rouge, though. She shares the spotlight with another young supernova: rap star NBA YoungBoy.
YoungBoy, born Kentrell Gaulden, is among the most popular rappers in the genre. He has shown tremendous versatility on his projects, featuring on tracks with Juice WRLD, Lil Yachty, Tyler, the Creator, Quavo and Takeoff. That’s not to mention his frantic output; still just 23, YoungBoy already has released more than 20 albums.
The pair are putting their city on the map. Could they be doing that as a couple?
Are Angel Reese and NBA YoungBoy dating?
Rumors emerged linking the basketball star with the rapper after rap page (and notorious misinformer) Raphouse released a tweet indicating Reese and YoungBoy were, in fact, dating. Reese quickly put that foolishness to bed, saying rather bluntly:
That should do it. For what it’s worth, Reese and YoungBoy have connected over social media. They talked on Instagram Live a little while back, even discussing the possibility of YoungBoy stepping out to one of Reese’s games.
However, it seems the 20-year old superstar is not interested in the rap star. That hasn’t stopped her teammates (namely Flau’jae Johnson) from fanning the flames. Let the rumor mill swirl…
wow @Flaujae 🤣🤣i got sum for you since you wanna play https://t.co/VRoneUpvHl

BREAKING: Angel Reese Makes Massive Announcement On Her Basketball Future Following LSU’s Exit From The NCAA Tournament. Unbelievable decision. DETAILS BELOW!!!

Angel Reese has announced a decision on her basketball future.
Reese told reporters she was unsure of what to do following LSU’s NCAA Tournament exit on Monday night but had up to around 10:00 PM this Wednesday to announce a decision given that the WNBA requires layers to renounce their remaining NCAA eligibility 48 hours after their last game once they make it to the Elite Eight.
The Tigers star is taking her talents to the WNBA on the back of her recent disappointment, having revealed as much to Vogue Magazine.
Reece led LSU to a national championship last season and was named the tournament’s most outstanding player. But she was not able to help them past the Elite Eight this time around as Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes beat them 94-87 in a hotly contested game.

Reese has endured an eventful two seasons at LSU, having reached the pinnacle of college basketball with a title win that brought a hailstorm of media attention and rife scrutiny.
“I haven’t known a day of peace since (the national championship). And it sucks,” she said after Monday’s loss. “But I still wouldn’t change. I wouldn’t change anything.”
Angel Reese Insists She’s Ready For The WNBA
Angel Reese has told Vogue that she’s ready for professional basketball as she’s achieved everything at the college level. An All-American this season, she averaged 18.6 points and 13.4 rebounds per game.
“I’ve done everything I wanted to in college,” she said “I’ve won a national championship, I’ve gotten [Southeastern Conference] Player of the Year, I’ve been an All-American. My ultimate goal is to be a pro—and to be one of the greatest basketball players to play, ever. I feel like I’m ready.”
Reese is expected to be a top-10 pick in the WNBA Draft.
