Angel Reese endured a difficult night as the Atlanta Dream beat the Connecticut Sun 104–69. She was struck in the face during a second-quarter incident involving Connecticut’s Aaliyah Edwards and also struggled with her shooting, making just three of 13 attempts.

The report presents the incident as part of a one-sided Dream victory rather than indicating a serious injury or disciplinary outcome. Reese missed 10 shots, while Atlanta won by 35 points.
