Dream Aces Basketball

Atlanta Dream star forward Angel Reese avoided a one-game suspension when the WNBA rescinded her eighth technical foul that was assessed Friday night in a loss to Portland. As a result of the ruling that came a few hours after the game, Reese will be available for the Dream’s game against league-leading Minnesota on Sunday. Reese was tangled up in the paint with the Fire’s Carla Leite as Dream guard Rhyne Howard made a 3-pointer from the right corner during the fourth quarter. Leite was facing the basket and trying to box out Reese, who was directly behind her. Leite had both arms extended backward in an effort to contain Reese, who pushed herself free after Howard’s basket went down. Reese protested the call on the court.
