The WNBA player, Angel Reese, may not have helped her negotiate the use with a low viral Monday.
During an unparalleled game, Reese lost three straight shots while standing just below the basket, and one of the shots hit the lower edge of the board.
Reese could at least go out with two offensive rebounds in possession, but fell to the hard wood after missing her third shot.
The images of the sequence extended rapidly on social networks, and many made fun of the moment after Reese ignited the controversy with recent claims that WNBA players can refuse to play to negotiate a higher salary.

“I have to go into the meetings because I listen to how, ‘If they don’t give us what we want, we sit,” Reese said.
“The WNBA Do not pay my invoices at all. I don’t even think I pay one of my invoices. Literally.”

“Do you realize that I was written seventh in my class while ‘Layups’ missing’ like a rookie who shot 39% in the year and was still an All-Star and that was the worst thing you have ever seen me?” Reese wrote. “Or you just accommodated with your dog at home hating Adam?”
Reese’s shooting ability was not considered a force of his game when he entered the WNBA after his university career in LSU. At 6 feet, 3 inches high, Reese was considered a first level defender and rebound. He was up to that reputation as a rookie, demonstrating that the skeptics of his shooting ability correctly.
He averaged 13.1 rebounds per game in 2024 and became the first player in the history of the WNBA with three consecutive games of more than 20 rebounds. Reese broke the single -season assistance record of the WNBA on September 1. However, the doll surgery that ended the season a few weeks later prevented him from keeping the record. The eventual MVP A’JA Wilson broke the record on September 11.
Reese triggered 39% from the field, only 18.8% from the range of 3 points and only 73.6% in the free throw line. He lost his tray several times in his first year.
Reese signed a four -year rookie contract and $ 324,383 before her first WNBA season in 2024. She won less than $ 75,000 in her first year and will win less than that in 2025.

In October, Reese revealed that he could not pay his bills based on that salary in a live Instagram video.
“I am living beyond my possibilities. Hateing you pay for invoices, baby. I just hope you know that the wnba does not pay my invoices,” he said. “I don’t even think he pays one Of my invoices. Literally, I’m trying to think about my rent where I stay. Let me make mathematics very fast. Don’t even know my salary (WNBA), $ 74,000? “
Reese said he is paying $ 8,000 per rent.
“Nena, if they thought … that WNBA check does not pay anything,” he added. “Did that even pay my car’s note? … I couldn’t even eat a sandwich with that. I couldn’t even eat. I couldn’t live.”
The WNBA players union opted for its current collective bargaining agreement in October, two years before expiration.
The current CBA will still cover the 2025 season, so the two parties have one year to negotiate a new agreement.
