Overview

  • Reese told the Chicago Tribune she expects the front office to land top talent and warned she could “move in a different direction” if it does not.
  • Her critique extended to coaching and personnel, urging Tyler Marsh to coach harder and questioning reliance on injured veteran Courtney Vandersloot at point guard.
  • Coach Tyler Marsh said the organization is handling the matter in-house, with multiple reports noting a planned team meeting where players expect to address Reese.
  • Reese received her eighth technical foul against the Sun, triggering an automatic one-game suspension for Friday’s Fever matchup unless the league rescinds the call.
  • Chicago beat Connecticut 88-64 to reach 10-30 as Reese posted 18 points and 13 rebounds; she leads the WNBA in boards and remains on a rookie deal with a team option for a fourth year as a deep market looms.
