Angel Reese caps off 2024 WNBA Draft celebrations with new $183,000 Mercedes-Benz SUV

Angel Reese wasted no time before getting a new Mercedes-Benz after the Chicago Sky selected her with the No. 7 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft earlier this month.

The former LSU All-American forward — who became one of the faces of the NIL era and has a current valuation of $1.8 million — unveiled her AMG G-Class SUV in a post on her Instagram Story while in Illinois on Tuesday.

The luxury vehicle, which features Nappa leather red interior and black rims, has a starting price of $183,000, per Mercedes-Benz.

“New city. New beginnings. New big body Barbie Benz,” Reese captioned the post, tagging Champion Motoring in San Diego, Calif., which has worked with a number of pro athletes.

Reese signed an NIL deal with Mercedes-Benz of Baton Rouge and received her first Benz ahead of her 21st birthday in May 2023.

“Getting my dream car at 21 in my new favorite city >>>>>,” she wrote in a post on TikTok that featured her behind the wheel while her teacup Yorkie, Tiago, sat in the passenger’s seat.

Reese has a total of 17 different NIL deals, according to a March 2023 report by Sponsor United, which includes ZOA Energy drink, Raising Cane’s, Coach, PlayStation, McDonald’s, Wingstop, Outback Steakhouse and Amazon.

Reese worked with Mercedes-Benz to get her first car in the NIL era, something she revealed a few weeks after LSU clinched its first-ever women’s NCAA basketball title with a win over Iowa in 2023.
