Angel Reese Hypes up Sky Teammate After Ejection

In the pantheon of ugly games posted by the Chicago Sky this season--and there have been many for a team that has gone 8-24 and has played nine games without injured star Angel Reese--Wednesday's matchup against the Connecticut Sun was among the ugliest. The Sky lost, 71-62, as Chicago shot just 38.7% from the field, 25.0% from the 3-point line and committed 19 turnovers.

It was the fifth-worst offensive production for Chicago this season, which is stunning because there have actually been four times when the team failed to hit 60 points. At 6-26, the Sun are the only team worse than the Sky this season, and at 74.8, they are the only WNBA team with a worse offense than the Sky (75.4).

But the ugliness of the game was magnified by a scuffle between the teams that yielded three ejections.

The play that started the confrontation came when the Sun's Bria Hartley gave Chicago’s Rebecca Allen a push in the chest in a fight for rebounding position. Allen hit the floor after the Hartley push, and Allen tried to drag Hartley down with her.
