“My brother is going to have a great year. i’m calling it now.”That’s what Angel Reese said ahead of the 2024-25 college basketball season.

About four months in, you know where we are headed. Julian ‘Juju’ Reese is having an impressive year and if the memory was fading out for anyone, the siblings are here to remind just the potential the Maryland Terrapin holds.

Juju Reese made sure the crowd felt his presence in a big way during the matchup against Nebraska.

With 15:55 left in the second half, Maryland held a 50-43 lead when Reese threw down a thunderous dunk that sent the arena into a frenzy.

The dominant play didn’t just fire up the fans—it also caught the attention of his sister.

Taking to social media, Angel proudly reacted to her brother’s highlight moment with a simple three-word message: “Heard you 10!”

Juju, who has been a consistent force for Maryland this season, finished the game with 13 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 blocks while shooting a staggering 83.3% from the field. His impact on both ends of the floor continues to prove why he’s a key player for the Terrapins.

But all this excellence comes from her elder sister. For both Angel and Julian, basketball isn’t just a sport—it’s family. The siblings grew up playing together in Maryland and have been each other’s biggest supporters every step of the way. Now, as Angel dominates in the WNBA and JuJu shines for Maryland, their bond remains as strong as ever. And this wasn’t the first time Chi-Town Barbie cheered for her brother.

Last year, when JuJu made history by becoming just the eighth player in Maryland’s history to record 1,100 points and 800 rebounds, Angel couldn’t contain her excitement and retweeted the post celebrating his milestone. Clearly, she’s always his biggest fan—and the feeling is mutual.

Can’t believe it? JuJu has openly called Angel his “inspiration,” crediting her work ethic and confidence as motivation for his own game. And he honestly has every reason to. The 6’10” forward has been a force in the Big Ten, averaging 13.2 points and nearly 9 rebounds this season while forming a dominant frontcourt duo with five-star recruit Derik Queen. His goal? To lead Maryland on a deep March Madness run and take his shot at the NBA.

The 22-year-old Maryland native, on the other hand, is focused on elevating her game for the upcoming 2025 W’s season. Not just that, she’s even ensuring to mention Juju whenever brands ask her about male athletes.
“I try to include him in as many deals as I can,” she shared. In other words, Reese is making sure the money stays in the family.
