During an appearance on ESPN, analyst Chiney Ogwumike dismissed complaints regarding refereeing raised by Atlanta Dream coach Karl Smesko and player Angel Reese following the WNBA Finals. Ogwumike pointed out that the Dream actually held a significant free-throw advantage over the Golden State Valkyries, attempting 130 shots from the charity stripe compared to their opponents' 78 across the five games.

Furthermore, she emphasized that Kiah Stokes utilized her physical size and defensive awareness to effectively limit Reese during the fourth and fifth matchups of the series.
