The New York Liberty shut down Angel Reese’s game

Angel Reese needed 2 more points to keep his double-double streak alive. In an exciting game against the New York Liberty, the 22-year-old rookie had many opportunities to extend her streak, but had great difficulty from the field.

The Liberty, who saw Angel get his 15th consecutive double-double against them on Thursday, made it very clear that they were NOT going to let it happen once again determined to block the slightest bit of shooting space for him so as not to get another double-double .

There were just 17 seconds left in the game when Reese received the ball and immediately four Liberty players ran to mark it near the left block. An unexpected move by New York to close the game and not let Ángel increase his record.

Reese came to the WNBA after an incredible season in the NCAA with the LSU Tigers. Now he seeks to make his way in this league and achieve new records.
