Angel Reese Turns 'Mebounds' Into Trademark Bid

Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese has embraced the trolling term 'mebounds,' originally mocking her tendency to rebound her own missed shots, by filing a trademark for the phrase under goods and services, potentially for apparel and other merchandise. Reese credited critics for their creativity and openly discussed plans for branded products on social media. The move comes as the Sky have begun the season with a 3-7 record and Reese has experienced a statistical dip, yet she recently achieved her first career triple-double. While the term continues to draw both support and mockery online, Reese's response has been praised as entrepreneurial. Her actions highlight her resilience and ability to turn viral criticism into business opportunities. Reese remains a prominent figure in women's basketball and pop culture.
