The latest clash between the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets welcomed a member of college basketball royalty on Friday night.

That's because LSU star Angel Reese sat courtside at Madison Square Garden as she waits to find out where she will be playing in the WNBA next season.

It was announced on Friday that Reese and Caitlin Clark will headline a list of 15 college players who have been invited to the WNBA draft on Monday in Brooklyn.

Reese, known for her eyelash extensions, painted fingernails and ferocious play in the paint, formally declared for the draft last week.

The 21-year-old, whose career interests also include modeling and fashion, announced her decision via a photo shoot in Vogue, saying she was inspired by tennis great Serena Williams announcing her retirement in 2022 in a similar manner.
