Carolyn Peck and Monica McNutt join LaChina Robinson on WNBA Countdown to discuss the news that Angel Reese has suffered a season-ending wrist injury and debate if the Chicago Sky can grab the final spot in the WNBA Playoffs without her or not.

Collective casual viewers can all breathe a sigh of relief - don't have to hear about her and her jealousy for a few months.

ESPN is providing grief counseling and PTSD coping skills for all female basketball analysts.

What would be funny is if Chicago Sky starts winning after this!😅

[boxingandbulldogs]

Those two on the right (McNutt and Peck) have been wrong about nearly everything this season. How are they still employed?

[davidbertrand]

Now Cardoso will get the PT she deserves and people will see who the best rookie of the Sky actually is.

Angel Reese suffered a stress fracture in her wrist from all the bricks she threw .

[davidmathewson]

The Sky had 38 rebounds in their game without Reese playing yesterday. The team average rebounds per game is 37 (with Reese playing obviously). So the team didn't even miss Reese's rebounds in the game yesterday, they simply replaced them with other players. We been saying that Reese's stats (mostly rebounds) have been greatly exaggerated for their importance to team victories. Well there you go.

One thing you won't see Caitlin doing; jumping up off the bench and cheering this news.

[brucerogers]

Angely's overworking her wrist by waving her fingers in front of her face too much...

All the WNBA backboards are relieved from all the bricks Angel been hitting them with

[LoriMac]

Y'all hyping up her padded double doubles just smashes your credibility. They play SO much better without her 😏

[lesliegreenhalgh]

No ones missing her - including those she plays with

ESPN's woke mob punching the air right now

The best way to get out of a hole is to stop digging it, and it looks as if Reese has realized that her way was not what fans were looking for and just backed out of the hole, with an injury that ended her season, and a good excuse as to why Clark won the ROTY and not her.

Providing a master class in what is "Narcissistic personality disorder." Reese, in her goodbye, spent the entire time saying just how great she was, that she was sad that people could not see her greatness, and that she would be playing in the unrivalled League - the only thing that would come out of that will be, just how bad her Basket Ball skills are.

Here is a point to ponder, the ball most likely will now be going through Kamilla Cardoso. It will be interesting to see how well the Sky does without Reese and if the Sky gets hot, will Reese have a season-saving recovery?

No mention of questionable issues regarding her "season ending injury"?? 1). 1st announced on Angel's social media stage, NOT by the Sky 2). No mention of it at the post game press conference. 3). No apparent time that she actually injured anything 4). No official report supporting "season ending" vs. "game to game"...a little suspicious, to me.

[l.h.tnguyen]

Historic? Getting your own rebound is historic?

[Shelmz]

How is there no footage of her getting injured? Did anyone see how it happened?

[Kakki]

I've never seen an off video injury....Anyway Sky going to do better

[WutTheDeuceGaming]

have not seen ANY medical information come out from this. NONE. Notice how the info graphic also doesn't specify what it is.

Regardless, her season will go down as one of the worst shooting seasons from a big EVER. Not even just the WNBA, but in ALL of basketball. 39% on over 12 attempts per game, yuck. Them rebounds aren't covering for that abysmal %.

Not to mention the blatant projection in that tweet shown trying to make herself a victim as if no one believed in her, gtfo of here. The narcissism in her is on another level.

Watch, now that she's out, Cardoso will get more minutes, will rack up rebounds, while shooting (has the entire season) a FAR better %. I wouldn't doubt if the Sky start winning games again because of it.

[thoover]

Going to be hard to replace 35 % from the field.
