The WNBA is on a marketing hot streak, and things could get even sweeter! Rising star Angel Reese, a brand magnet for the Chicago Sky, might be teaming up with none other than Hershey's. This potential deal has fans buzzing with excitement, dreaming of all the peanut butter cup possibilities.

We all know Reese is a dominant force on the court. Her impressive stats in just one WNBA season are a testament to that, with a killer double-double streak that's hard to ignore. Adding to her stellar season, Reese was recently named a WNBA All-Star, set to play alongside her rookie rival, Caitlin Clark.

 

But beyond the court, she's also proven to be a marketing darling, racking up endorsement deals with companies like Pepsi, Reebok, and a wide range of brands from Amazon to Coach and PlayStation.

 

 

Now, things get truly nutty (in the best way possible)! Remember those custom Reese's-themed Reebok kicks Reese sported recently? Well, reports suggest there might be more candy-coated collaborations on the horizon. Hershey's has hinted at a potential partnership with the young baller, and let's just say, the idea of a 'Reese x Reese' partnership is definitely drool-worthy. 

Imagine rocking a pair of limited edition Hershey's Reese sneakers or grabbing a bag of special Reese's Pieces packaging featuring Angel Reese herself. The potential for unique and engaging marketing campaigns is vast. Reese has already shown her love for the brand, playfully calling her fans "Reese's Pieces" and even sporting those custom-made shoes.

Fans, is this a dream come true? What kind of Hershey's x Reese collab would get you most excited? Limited edition packaging featuring the WNBA star? Commercials showcasing Reese's signature moves while enjoying some delicious Reese's? Let your wildest ideas flow in the comments below.
