Even if she considers herself one of the league’s biggest talents, Angel Reese absolutely has to work on her game to take it to the next level. This sequence against the Liberty on Thursday night confirms it, she who has been creating buzz for all the wrong reasons.
In front of their home crowd, the Sky followed up with another defeat, this time against the Liberty and with a score of 99-74. No match, even if it’s not surprising given the New York franchise’s title ambitions this season. Angel Reese didn’t change the game, even if some media outlets tried to praise his performance.
Reese has grabbed 29 rebounds in the first two games of the season, including 12 this Thursday against the Liberty. 8 offensive rebounds for the player, which looks impressive on paper. Reality? Let’s just say it’s a little uglier than that. Firstly, because Reese compiled 2 points at 0/8 shooting against New York, in addition to 5 turnovers and a differential of -25.
Angel Reese mocked again for her failures
A bad match indeed for the player and the Sky, who will have to wait a little longer for their first win of the season. But it’s Reese’s game that has created the buzz, and not necessarily for the right reasons. The reason: the fact that the inside player is grabbing so many rebounds thanks to… her own misses in the circle.
If she finishes with 8 offensive rebounds on 8 missed shots, it’s not necessarily by chance. Reese has a knack for grabbing rebounds, yes, but often as a result of her own failures in the paint. She compiled 0 points and 7 rebounds in 8 minutes of play on Thursday night, thanks in particular to this strange sequence, not all that rare for her.

Not a first for the player, and probably not the last. So yes, she’s showing more aggression to get her rebound, but she doesn’t know how to finish, which is a problem for someone in her position. One could also criticize her inability to get the ball out when facing too much competition.
