Moment Angel Reese Is Left Speechless After Reporter Caught In Private Microphone, WNBA Star Predicts 'Firing'

WBNA superstar Angel Reese covered her mouth in disbelief as a reporter had a private conversation during a press conference.

In what can only be described as an extremely awkward moment, Chicago Sky star Reese was initially taken aback by the strange crossover of voices.

This all happened while a reporter was asking a serious basketball question about Reese breaking Candace Parker’s double-double streak record.

It was then that it became apparent that another microphone had been left on by mistake.

“Will we ever have an intimate relationship?” a surprised female voice interjected.

“Oh my God, this is an uncomfortable subject,” a man’s voice replied.

It was already clear that all normal press conference etiquette was thrown out the window.

Reese looked completely confused at this unlikely turn of events.

“Excuse me,” she said, as staff asked the first reporter to repeat his question.

“I never wanted to have intimate relations with anyone,” the man said.

At this point it was very embarrassing for everyone involved.

Reese covered her mouth in shock, while coach Teresa Weatherspoon and teammate Marina Mabrey also looked unsure of where this was going.

“I told you they were weird about it,” Mabrey said with a laugh.

“Oooo, they’re going to get fired eventually,” Reese said.

Fortunately, all microphones were then cut, with the staff no doubt shocked by the turn of events.

The press conference finally resumed normally.

How the WNBA Works

The 2024 WNBA season features 12 teams and the regular season runs from May 14 to September 9.

Each team plays 40 regular-season games – four against five teams from the same conference and two teams from the other conference, and three games against the remaining four teams.

The top eight teams in the league standings qualify for the playoffs, regardless of which conference they belong to.

The playoffs will be played as a best-of-three series in the first round, while the semifinals and WNBA Finals will be played as a best-of-five series.

This season also includes a one-month break for the Paris 2024 Olympics.

The Las Vegas Aces defend their back-to-back WNBA championships.

Reese was certainly in form during the Sky’s game against Seattle Storm.

Reese recorded his league-record 13th consecutive double-double.

She scored 17 points and grabbed 14 rebounds during the game, demonstrating once again her great quality.

Sky, however, lost 84-71 and now has a record of 8-12 for the season.

Reese’s brilliant performances, along with fellow superstar Caitlin Clark, have seen interest in the WNBA increase dramatically.

Large crowds and record television ratings are key features of this season in women’s basketball.
