Angel Reese will be suspended by a game after collecting his eighth technique of the season.
According to the WNBA rules, players must fulfill an automatic suspension without paying when receiving their eighth technology of the year.
Reese had seven to 22 games last season, but managed to avoid an eighth.

The foul came while fighting for a rebound against Aaliyah Edwards. While the two struggled for the position, Reese seemed upside down to Edwards next to the head.
The next game of Chicago Sky is Friday against Indiana Fever, which will now not present Reese or Caitlin Clark, who continues to treat a persistent injury of the groin.
The sky came out with an 88-64 victory over the Connecticut sun on Wednesday, but it was only the tenth victory of the season for the sky against 30 losses.
Before the game, Reese expressed disgust with the season.

“I am very vocal about what we need and what I want,” Tribune told Chicago. “I would like to be here for my career, but if things do not work, I could obviously have to move in a different direction and do my best for me. But while I am here, I will try to keep an open mind about what I have here and maximize it as much as I can.”
“I am not forming with the same thing … we did this year. We have to get good players. We have to get great players. That is not negotiable for me. I am willing and wanting to play with the best. And, nevertheless, I can help get the best here, that is what we are going to do this low season. Therefore, it will be very important this low season to ensure the best because we cannot establish this low season.
Reese backed his comments after the victory on Wednesday night and said he had already apologized to the team.
“I’m probably frustrated with myself right now,” he said. “I think the language was taken from context and I really did not mean intentionally to my teammates because they have gone through this throughout the year.”
