It was WNBA fight night between Angel Reese and Rickea Jackson on Tuesday.
Reese got into it with another opponent this week. The Chicago Sky star had a heated moment with Los Angeles Sparks forward Rickea Jackson during Tuesday’s game between the two teams.
In the first quarter at Wintrust Center in Chicago, Jackson fought for a rebound with Sky guard Rebecca Allen off a Chicago miss.
Jackson and Allen were jockeying for a rebound when Jackson took exception to Allen’s physicality. Jackson and Allen got tangled up in the sequence and began trading words with one another. That led to Reese stepping in between the two, but she ended up being pushed by Rickea as a result.
There was another moment during that brie interaction that went widely unnoticed.
Kelsey Plum saw the scuffle late as she was talking to a ref, but once she figured out what was happening, she quickly asserted herself into the action.
Plum could be seen telling Angel Reese to go the other way while pushing her back from her teammate.
