Angel Reese is one of the hottest names in all of basketball right now.
Although her LSU Tigers were eliminated from the NCAA Tournament last week, her announcement that she was turning pro reignited her celebrity.
Nothing exemplifies how big of a star Reese now is more than her provocative outfit to a recent NBA game causing a major stir.
In addition, Reese is so popular now that that LeBron James was recently accused of trying to dress like her.
It all started with this tweet from the main Los Angeles Lakers account:

Are we really calling that “defense?” Actually, I guess so because that is the same defense we see LeBron enacting time and time again. Nevermind.

Big picture, Reese is a legit star at this point. Nobody can question her credentials.
The fact that James is being accused of copying her look is very telling.
Will James ultimately opt to address whether or not he was inspired by Reese’s look? Time will tell.
