Going into Tuesday’s loss against the Storm, Reese had totaled 788 points and 735 rebounds through 57 games during her two-year WNBA career. With 6:44 remaining in the third quarter, Reese received a pass from Sky teammate Rachel Banham for a layup. This marked her 12th point of the night and 800th of her career.
Not even two weeks after the Seattle Storm included Zia Cooke in a trade with the Washington Mystics, the third-year guard is back.
The Seattle Storm finally ended their six game losing streak in a tight victory in Canada last night. By a score of 80-78, the Storm escaped narrowly after they fell victim to a late overturned foul call. They ended a six game losing streak and now the Storm will look to build a much needed winning streak.
The Storm’s win dashed an exciting development for Chicago, which got star forward Angel Reese back from a long absence. Reese missed seven games in a row because of a back injury. Reese played well, scoring 19 points, grabbing seven boards, dishing out four dimes and recording a block, though she committed four turnovers in 26 minutes.
