For yet another day the WNBA continues to be at the forefront of sports discussions.
The latest buzz for the WNBA comes after Chicago Sky rookie standout, Angel Reese, was ejected from their Tuesday evening game vs. the New York Liberty. The New York Liberty won the game 88-75.
Reese was ejected with less than three minutes remaining in the game, after allegedly exchanging words with the referee following a loose ball foul. Those in attendance, as well as fans watching at home, were confused by the call.
Reese who has been intricately involved in the latest WNBA drama between her teammate Chennedy Carter and Caitlin Clark was also surprised by the ejection. She finished with 13 points and 10 rebounds. Reese didn’t appear at the post-game press conference.
People on social media quickly came to her defense, with Chicago Bulls’ player Lonzo Ball saying he would pay her fine for her, but the Reese will need to learn how to navigate the WNBA and understand the pulse of referees moving forward or her well documented attitude will end up costing her more.
