Angel Reese had her best game of the season on Tuesday night, but despite her 17-point, 11-rebound double-double, the Chicago Sky were blown out by the New York Liberty, 85–66. Reese's frustration boiled over following a sloppy sequence between both teams during the third quarter.
The Sky failed to get a good shot off after Reese made a steal at midcourt and as both teams ran back up the court, she stopped and hit New York's Leonie Fiebich with a hard screen. Officials reviewed the play and upgraded the foul to a flagrant foul one. ESPN's Ryan Ruocco and Rebecca Lobo did not agree with the decision.
