Lonzo Ball Covers Angel Reese’s WNBA Fine and More
.
Chicago Bulls star Lonzo Ball proved his generosity by paying the fine for Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese after her first ejection in the WNBA.
.
Reese, who enjoyed a record-breaking debut season, faced a minor setback when her competitive nature led to an on-court dispute with officials.
.
The incident occurred during a game when Reese argued a foul call, which earned her a technical foul.
.
Her frustration led to another technical for waving off the official, resulting in her ejection.
.
While courtside, Lonzo witnessed the incident unfold and later offered to cover her fine through a social media post.
.
When Reese addressed the matter on her show, Unapologetically Angel, she confirmed Ball had given her $2,000.
.
However, the fine turned out to be just $200. Lonzo had handed the money to former Sky coach Teresa Weatherspoon, who ensured it reached Reese in cash.
.
Though the second technical was later rescinded, Reese accumulated three more technicals throughout the season.
.
Learning from the experience, she matured her game, showcasing both her competitive edge and professionalism.
