Reese scored 13 points and 20 rebounds in the 82-80 loss, registering yet another double-double. But the sky could have used those layups she missed, given that they only lost by two.
Check her out in the video below:
While Reese has come under fire for her misses in recent times, fans were still in disbelief given how easy the chances were, with one even accusing her of point shaving.
“How do you miss those bro 😭,” one asked.
“Is she point shaving?” another inquired.
“I thought you were exaggerating how open she was, but nah, she was OPEN open,” one comment read.
“I don’t realize how awful this is from a professional athlete. It’s not even funny anymore it’s embarrassing,” someone wrote.
“It is insane how bad she is and yet a ton of people keep saying she’s really good. It is WILD to me,” someone else claimed.
“I don’t understand. If she was a jack and took heavily contested shots that’s one thing But I legit don’t understand why her open finishes are bad,” another comment noted.
Angel Reese Is On A Historic Tear
Despite her foibles in the paint, Reese is breaking all sorts of records, and her outing on Friday night marked another milestone as she became the first player to record two consecutive 20-rebound games in WNBA history.
Should she remain on pace, she will end the season with the league’s highest-ever rebound average. She currently averages 12.6 a game, while no one else has touched 12.0, though two players have averaged 11.9 in previous seasons.
The Las Vegas Aces’ A’ja Wilson is averaging 11.9 this season as well, so she could make it tight for Reese.
