Casual basketball fans gobsmacked at horrible Angel Reese highlights from an actual WNBA Finals game

Here’s the bad news: The Atlanta Dream defeated the Golden State Valkyries on Thursday to force a Game 7.

The good news? Regardless of what happens on Saturday, there will be no more WNBA until next May. That’s right. Our long, national nightmare of trans debates and Sophie Cunningham slander and national anthem nonsense will go into hibernation for seven glorious months.

And, frankly, we’ve earned it. It’s exhausting. This whole season has been exhausting. It’s also been the longest season in the history of sports. It just won’t end!

FROM ANTHEMS TO DEFINITIONS, THE WNBA KEEPS DOING DUMB THINGS, AND THE REASON FOR IT WILL LEAVE YOU SPEECHLESS

Now, don’t get me wrong — I enjoyed the content during the summer months. It kept the lights on around here when there was no football. We needed a spark, and Sophie Cunningham gave us one because she’s a patriot.

God bless her.

SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM ACTED LIKE AN ADULT THIS WEEKEND WHILE ANGEL REESE PANDERED, RED-HOT RED SOX & CUBS SMACK!

Everyone else, though? I’m out on them. Thank goodness that league is on the doorstep of the offseason. It can’t get here fast enough.

Before we go, though, I do have one final collection of Angel Reese highlights that are currently going mega-viral on social media in the wake of yesterday’s win.

Reese … did not have her best game:

Thoughts? First impressions?

Look, it was a tough game for Angel Reese. No sugarcoating it. No hiding it. Just to show you how truly bad everyone else was, Reese somehow finished with a +/- of +10, which is stunning given she turned the ball over six times and made just 27% of her shots.

Feels like that shouldn’t equate to positive play on the court, but what do I know?

Sometimes, you just have a tough day at the office. That’s what Angel experienced yesterday afternoon in a potential close-out WNBA Finals game.

And yes — there was an actual WNBA Finals game played at noon yesterday. Amazing. That’s another story in itself, and one I don’t care much about.

What I do care about is Angel Reese. She was solid early on in these finals, but the last few games have been a struggle. Perhaps she’s getting tired of having to field questions from OutKick’s Dan Zaksheske every other night when the league actually grants us a question?

WNBA PLAYERS, COACHES REFUSE TO EXPLAIN NATIONAL ANTHEM ABSENCES AMID MOUNTING CRITICISM

Could be.

Or, perhaps the pressure-cooker that is the WNBA Finals is just getting to her? Seems like a real possibility.

Again, yesterday wasn’t her best:

Oh well. What’s done is done. The series shifts back to Golden State for one final WNBA game in 2026. This one is for all the marbles, folks.

Will Angel rise to the moment? Will both teams disrespect our great national anthem for the 400th time? Will some gaslighting coach wear a “Trans Kids Lives Matters” shirt on the sideline? Better yet, will Angel wear another “Protect Black Women” shirt in 2026?

Most importantly, will anyone watch since it’s at 8 p.m. on a college football Saturday night and it’s also Halloween night?

Stay tuned!
