I was a big Reese defender but now things like this are childish. You can NOT disrespect your coach in public. If you angry do it in the locker room fr

Reese finished with 22 points, 15 rebounds and four assists. This was her sixth consecutive game with 15 or more rebounds. Over the last five games, Reese is averaging 19.4 points, 16.6 rebounds and 5.0 assists.

The Sky lost their second straight game and dropped to 5-13. They aim to return to winning ways on Wednesday when they host the Dallas Wings.

Angel Reese speaks after the loss to the Washington Mystics

Angel Reese continued her impressive performance despite being on the losing end on Tuesday. She spoke to the media and laid the blame on herself.

"We have to box out and not give them another opportunity to make free throws," Reese said. "We did not box out tonight. It wasn't enough. Very frustrating for myself. I have to be better as far as boxing out."

Reese shot 5-for-9 (55.6%) and hit 80% of her free throws. While she rebounded well, there were moments when she was boxed out by smaller players.

She would be eager to put the loss behind her and help the Sky return to winning ways on Wednesday.
