Reese and her current Sky teammates then dismantled the Connecticut Sun, 88-64, to improve to 10-30 on the season. In addition to her 18 points and 13 rebounds, Reese also picked up a technical foul after some contact with Aaliyah Edwards while the two were battling for position.

The technical foul limit was previously seven in a season, which the WNBA bumped up after expanding the season to 44 games in 2025. Reese will also face a suspension for every two techs she picks up for the rest of the regular season. Chicago has four games remaining in the season, with the 11th-place Sky already eliminated from the postseason.

Reese was issued her league-leading eighth technical late in the second quarter on Wednesday after hitting Sun forward Aaliyah Edwards in the head while the two were battling for position under the basket. While Edwards was looking up toward the basket, Reese spun and smacked Edwards with the back of her hand.
