The Chicago Sky made the decision to draft Angel Reese 7th overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft. Unfortunately for Chicago, that still hasn’t stopped them from being a losing franchise. Last season the team finished 13-27 and this year they’re off to a 7-14 start.
However, Reese is facing major accusations after a video leaks of her clearly throwing the ball to the other team.
“She Isn’t Even Trying” Angel Reese Accused Of Point Shaving In Horrible Leaked Video
On Monday, Angel Reese had another double-double as the Chicago Sky lost at home to the Minnesota Lynx. Her 22 points and 10 rebounds were her ninth consecutive double-double, and the 41st of her career in just 55 games. She is the only player in the WNBA who averages a double-double. However, its not her stat sheet that fans are talking about:
Unfortunately, the Sky dropped to 7-14 on the season and Reese had five of the team’s 18 turnovers. And one of the turnovers was just inexcusable.
Minnesota’s Courtney Williams made a jumper with 1:14 remaining in the second quarter that cut the Sky’s lead to eight. Reese took the ball out and without looking threw a careless, underhand pass to no one. All she could do was point as the ball bounced straight to Williams who passed to an open Bridget Carleton who hit an open three.
Here is the full video:

After a Reese offensive foul on the other end, the Lynx scored one more basket to make it a four-point lead going into halftime. The Lynx won the next two quarters and the game.
In addition to leading the WNBA in rebounding by a wide margin, Reese also leads the league in turnovers with 3.8 per game.
Here are many fans reactions to this play:
She’s point shaving
