[Saba Sports News] Angel Reese had another rough sequence that quickly caught the attention of fans and critics alike.
During the Chicago Sky’s 99-74 loss to the New York Liberty at Wintrust Arena in Chicago, the second-year forward struggled mightily on offense.
Reese finished the game 0-for-8 from the field and just 2-of-6 from the free-throw line, managing only two points. She did grab 12 rebounds and record 3 steals, but one particular possession stood out for all the wrong reasons.
On the official play-by-play, Reese was credited with five offensive rebounds during a single possession — along with two missed shots and two of her attempts getting blocked.
The entire sequence became a viral moment, evoking flashbacks to a similarly awkward stretch she had in a game last year that also made the rounds online.
Reese’s relentless rebounding effort continues to be a bright spot in her game. However, her tendency to try forcing putbacks immediately after grabbing offensive boards has been a recurring issue — one that WNBA legend Lisa Leslie reportedly tried to help her correct.
In one first-quarter sequence, Reese missed roughly five shots while grabbing about four rebounds on the same possession. It was a frustrating stretch to watch, and another reminder that while her hustle is never in question, her finishing still needs polish.
