Teresa Weatherspoon took out Angel Reese for good with 2:39 remaining in the Chicago Sky’s 86-68 loss to the Phoenix Mercury on Sunday. Reese exited with 19 points, 20 rebounds, one steal and one block. Had Weatherspoon allowed the “Chi Barbie” to end the game, she might have been the first rookie in WNBA history with a 20-point, 20-rebound night.
Sky fans reacted to Weatherspoon’s call to pull out Angel Reese late against the Mercury:
“Angel Reese has played out the game every other game. She now 1pt away from a 20/20 game & she put her on the bench. She probably trying to beat those dumb stat pad allegations goofies kept saying. Dumbest team in the league.”

WHY THE FUCK WOULD SHE TAKE ANGEL REESE OUT OF THE GAME?
The first rookie 20/20 game would have been nuts!!

@Aceboykwon was furious:
“Get Angel Reese the f**k out of Chicago f**k this weirdo a** coach Bruh”
One fan commented:
“Teresa Weatherspoon is genuinely dangerous because she’s a combination of Monty Williams and Steve Kerr”
An unhappy fan warned:
“Teresa Weatherspoon better pray she don’t see me”
Reese hit 4-of-4 shots in the fourth quarter, and a made free throw would have given her the record. Although she hasn’t been an efficient scorer, she found her touch in the final frame. Scoring one point in the last 2:39 minutes would not have been an impossible task for the rookie.
A 20-point, 20-rebound game is still doable for Angel Reese
Following the 86-68 loss to the Phoenix Mercury, the Chicago Sky still have 13 games left in the regular season. The loss on Sunday dropped Chicago’s record to 11-16 and it occupies the eighth and final playoff spot. Angel Reese and Co. are now just 1.5 games ahead of the ninth-placed Atlanta Dream (9-17).
With every game crucial for Chicago’s playoff aspirations, Reese could eventually complete what she couldn’t on Sunday. Perhaps the showdown against Caitlin Clark’s Indiana Fever late this month would be the ideal time for Reese to grab that record.
