For \u2018Striking\u2019 Another Player \u2018In The Face,\u2019 Report Says\">technical foul<\/a><\/a> of the season during a game against the Connecticut Sun. The foul was issued because Reese struck Aaliyah Edwards in the back of the head with her hand, an act deemed unsportsmanlike by the officials. According to WNBA rules, accumulating eight technical fouls in a season results in an automatic one-game suspension. The suspension will apply to the Sky&#8217;s upcoming game against the Indiana Fever. Despite the team&#8217;s poor standing with a 9-30 record, Reese expressed frustration with the current roster and emphasized the need to acquire better players in the offseason. She also acknowledged the possibility of leaving the team if improvements are not made. Reese apologized to her teammates following the incident.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese has been suspended after getting a technical foul on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n<p>Reese whacked Aaliyah Edwards of the Connecticut Sun across the head, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/bleacherreport.com\/articles\/25244784-angel-reese-suspended-1-game-sky-after-8th-technical-foul-season-vs-sun\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bleacher Report<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As noted by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/wnba\/news\/skys-angel-reese-surpasses-technical-foul-limit-will-be-suspended-for-fridays-game-vs-fever\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CBS,<\/a> under WNBA rules, any coach or player getting eight technical fouls gets an automatic one-game suspension.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"ro\">tkhpogthkt <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/nYHRFAGndO\">pic.twitter.com\/nYHRFAGndO<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash;
