The Atlanta Dream had a rough go of things on Friday night. The Dream entered the action against the Portland Fire looking to stave off the Indiana Fever and hold onto the fourth spot in the standings. Unfortunately for Angel Reese and company, Portland, which plays hard every night despite its record, pulled off a 101-83 upset, while the Fever defeated the Connecticut Sun 111-91. As a result, Indiana overtook the fourth spot in the standings and would have home-court advantage over Atlanta if the season ended today.
It was an uncharacteristically off night for Angel Reese. Even though she finished with another impressive double-double with 16 points and 16 rebounds, Reese was just 5-for-14 from the field and let her frustrations boil over several times during the game.
One such occurrence came at the end of the first quarter, when she missed a shot at the rim, felt she deserved a foul called on her defender, and made her feelings very clear to the referee.
Reese's actions during the game earned her some heavy criticism from fans online.
"My favorite clip from last night was when she hit them with the "too small" celebration while losing by 13 and shooting like 30%," one fan posted on X.
