Wendell Carter Jr. and Angel Reese have taken their relationship public, and fans are buzzing. The Orlando Magic player confirmed the news during a recent TV appearance, sparking a wave of reactions. When asked about their relationship, Carter smiled and said, \”That’s the homie for sure, we locked in. \” His choice of words had everyone laughing, including the show’s co-host, Michelle Beadle, who couldn’t help but tease him about it. Reese, a star player for the Chicago Sky, seemed to endorse Carter’s announcement with a simple yet powerful response on social media: \”Period homie. \” This confirmation came after months of speculation, fueled by public appearances and social media posts. Fans first noticed something brewing between the two when Carter attended Reese’s birthday party in May. The connection seemed to grow stronger when he was spotted at the WNBA All-Star Game wearing a shirt featuring her image. Reese, in turn, showed her support by donning Orlando Magic merchandise on her Instagram. Carter’s connection to Chicago runs deep. He was drafted by the Bulls in 2018 and played there before being traded to the Magic in 2021. Reese, who was drafted seventh overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft, has had her own share of spotlight moments. Interestingly, Carter isn’t the only Magic player to date a Sky player who once played for LSU. Jalen Suggs, another Magic star, was previously linked to Hailey Van Lith, a Sky player who completed her rookie season this year. As fans continue to speculate about the future of this new couple, one thing is clear: their relationship has added a new layer of excitement to the sports world.
