Angel Reese produced another double-double for the Atlanta Dream on Sunday, but two moments near the basket attracted far more attention than her complete performance.
The first came in transition, when Reese finished a fast break with an emphatic-looking play that quickly circulated online. House of Lowlights sarcastically labeled the finish an "Angel Reese fast break dunk" on X, adding more fuel to the constant scrutiny surrounding her offense.
The second moment was far more important.
With Atlanta and the Indiana Fever tied at 81 in the closing seconds, Rhyne Howard missed a potential game-winning 3-pointer. Reese collected the offensive rebound underneath the basket and had a clean opportunity to end the game.
