Remember, Angel Reese scored just 2 points in a game earlier this season? So, no doubt she took a while to get the hang of it, but once she did, there was no coming back. And the fast-paced sequence against the Minnesota Lynx was no different. It all came up in a recent game against Lynx, wherein Reese showcased her expanding game by threading a pinpoint pass to Rebecca Allen in transition. What caught everyone’s attention wasn’t just the assist itself, it was the way she orchestrated the high-low action, showing off her vision and versatility like never before. The play, perfectly set up by Haley Van Lith, was described by the broadcasters as “an excellent dime to the Aussie,”. Impressive right?
So naturally, it didn’t take long for people to draw comparisons to Clark’s recent full-court assist to Sophie Cunningham that helped her break WNBA records. Even the broadcast team couldn’t help but point out the evolution in Reese’s game. “When Angel Reese is showing her range or versatility, her diversification as a basketball player and as a playmaker, this is just an excellent dime,” one announcer said, clearly impressed.
At that moment, the Chi-Town Barbie wasn’t just grabbing boards or finishing in the paint; she was controlling the tempo and setting her teammates up, much like how Clark has built her rookie reputation.
