THE WNBA on Wednesday rescinded the second technical foul assessed to Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese on Tuesday night.

Angel Reese was ejected after receiving two technical fouls with 2:31 remaining in the game, an 88-75 loss to the New York Liberty. Head official Maj Forsberg told a pool reporter post game that Ms. Reese’s technical fouls were for “disrespectfully addressing” official Charles Watson and then for “waving her hand in dismissal.” 

Ms. Reese will now be fined $200 for the one technical instead of $400 for two. A seventh tech brings an $800- fine and one-game suspension.

Ms. Reese finished with 13 points and 10 rebounds but shot 3 of 12 from the floor in the loss. Reuters
