Angel Reese is playing with fire. The Chicago Fire second-year star is one misdeed away from a WNBA suspension. On Tuesday night, Reese picked up her seventh technical foul of the season. On eight technicals, a player is given an automatic one-game suspension. This Reese technical came in a 23-point blowout loss to the league-leading Lynx.

Angel Reese entered the All-Star break playing the best basketball of her young career, but was unable to pick up where she left off in the Chicago Sky's first game back on Tuesday, a 91-68 loss to the league-leading Minnesota Lynx.

As Chicago gears up for a postseason push, head coach Tyler Marsh made lineup changes. Marsh and the rest of the Sky’s coaching staff decided to start Angel Reese, thrusting her back into the starting lineup after the WNBA All-Star missed the team’s previous game for “precautionary reasons” with a leg injury.

As the Sky tries to climb up the standings in the second half of the season, the team has welcomed former first-round pick Marquesha Davis on a seven-day hardship contract. Davis won the WNBA championship as a rookie on the New York Liberty last season, but the Liberty waived her on July 13.

In the Sky's first matchup in nearly a week, Reese, who hasn't played since July 14 due to a lingering leg issue, and the rest of her teammates came out flat, struggling to generate any offense while committing turnover after turnover.

According to the league rules, any player who has received eight technical fouls on the season should receive a suspension from the WNBA. Aside from the mishap in Angel Reese’s disagreement with the officials against the Minnesota Lynx, the Chicago Sky star was playing phenomenally in her first game after the WNBA All-Star break.

Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese became the first WNBA player to amass 10 or more consecutive double-doubles on two different occasions in league history on Tuesday.

As shared in a viral Reddit post, Reese leads all WNBA players in combined stats during July. That means the total of her points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks on average this month is higher than any other player.
