Sophie Cunningham Calls Out Angel Reese For 'Dangerous' Play During WNBA Postseason

Atlanta Dream forward Angel Reese has cemented her status as the WNBA Finals’ focal point after leading her team to a historic first championship appearance since 2013. The three-time All-Star, acquired midseason from the Chicago Sky in a trade involving first-round draft picks, has delivered standout play throughout the postseason, including a dominant defensive season that earned her Defensive Player of the Year honors.

Now, as the Dream prepare to face the Golden State Valkyries in Game 1, Reese’s offensive resurgence—marked by improved shot confidence—has silenced lingering criticism about her early-career struggles at the rim. Her journey to this moment has been anything but smooth, but the trade to Atlanta proved transformative, culminating in a Finals berth that puts her on the verge of making both WNBA and NBA history as a player of her caliber.
