The first quarter was a disaster for Reese, at least on the offensive end of the floor. While the Sky got off to a quick start and dominated the early phase of the game, their star forward struggled mightily. The former LSU standout bricked all four of her shot attempts in the opening quarter but managed to score three points by converting three of her four free throws.

Reese missed her first shot attempt of the second quarter as her shooting woes continued. She made a couple of free throws before finally knocking down a shot from the field. While the two-time All-Star struggled to score, her rebounding was off the charts as she pulled down double-digit boards in less than two quarters.

At half time, Angel Reese had seven points on 1 of 6 shooting from the floor and 5 of 6 from the free-throw line. She also recorded 13 rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 16:31 minutes.

After missing six shots in the first half, Reese went into a shell and didn’t attempt a single shot in the third quarter. She failed to score in the penultimate period, but her dominance on the boards remained unstoppable.

The 6-foot-4 forward put the team on her back and tried to will the Sky to victory. She made four field goals in the final quarter, stepping away from her role as a facilitator to aggressively attack the basket. However, her commendable effort didn’t result in a win, as the Mercury came away with an 83-79 victory.
