Seems like a borderline all star caliber player. If she had a better shot, I’m sure she would be. Strong starter for a contender regardless.

Angel with 16pts (5/8 fg), 6 reb, 2 blk, 1 ast at the half against Seattle. Hit her first 3pt shot

Angel is going OFF on Seattle. 2/2 from 3.

23pts (8/12), 9 reb, 2 blk, 2 ast with 6 min left

HUGE game from Barbie and Ken to win against Seattle and the Refs on the road.

Angel - 27pts (8-13) (2-2 from 3!), 10 reb, 2 blks, 2 asts.
Chennedy Carter - 33pts (15-24), 4 reb, 3 ast

The double-double streak continues for Angel. Definitely in the lead for ROTY

And 0 threes made and attempted by Chennedy. My kind of guard lol! :lol:

If she can consistently knock down those open looks she will be unstoppable lol

Not only did she knock down two threes but she also hit a long midrange jumper in rhythm

Scary stuff

Betnijah with a horrendous stretch. Was the only one on the Liberty having a good game.

Liberty still prone to lazy basketball in the hopes one of their stars bails them out.

Yeah that was uncharacteristically bad from Betnijah. Got called for a BS foul against Clark, missed a wide open 3 and then committed the turnover that essentially ended the game but frankly we came in so flat and lethargic to start the game that we earned this L.

Really frustrated by Tspoon's coaching today. Took out Kamilla in what was shaping up to be her best game, who was controlling the paint, and Seattle started attacking the **** basket.

Angel played 40 min
Dana and Diamond gave you 0 pts and 38 min combined.
Stopped feeding Angel and Cardoso (Obviously since she was benched in the 4th)

Smh

How come A'ja Wilson hasn't done this?

the limiting factor in double doubles is the rebounds and angel reese just plays with a ton of hustle and energy in crashing the boards. a'ja spends her energy on the court doing a whole variety of other things on offense and quite frequently plays around the perimeter while angel reese has a more paint centered offensive game so she'll generally be in better position on the offensive glass than a'ja more often than not. frankly, she's probably just a better rebounder

Why did Cardoso only play 20 mins?

This. A'ja has an entirely different style of play so the output is going to be different.

Plus, Angel is a dominant rebounder. Like historical even :lol:

She's the WNBA's Dennis Rodman. Look next for Angel in a wedding dress on Michigan Avenue.

She basically said because Izzy who shot 4/10 was having a good enough game to bench Cardoso who locked down the paint in the 1st half smh
