Angel Reese Taking Threes Pregame Ahead of Mystics Matchup Turns Heads

Shooting hasn't been a strong area of Angel Reese's game recently.

While she has showed out as a double-double machine for the Chicago Sky in her rookie season, her shooting ability has come into question following recent struggles.

Reese averages 13.5 points, 12.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and 1.3 steals per game. She leads the WNBA in double-doubles with 22 and is on a three-game streak of grabbing 20 or more rebounds in a game.

However, her shooting has been suffering this season, only making 38.7% of her shots overall and 18.2% from beyond the arc. Since returning from the Olympic break, she's shooting 32.4% from the field despite her statistical efforts of 13.6 points and 17.6 rebounds in the last five games.

The Sky are 1-4 in this stretch, as they need Reese to shake off the struggles and help them reach the playoffs. And according to a pregame video, it seems she has heard the criticism.

Throughout the length of the video, Reese can be seen taking shots from multiple spots on the court. These shots are specifically from three-point land and the mid-range area, places where Reese has shown she can make occasionally but must show more consistency.

Nonetheless, it shows her dedication to improving on the court, acknowledging her weaknesses and proving to basketball observers that she is capable of being more versatile in her offensive game.

Even if it doesn't automatically appear in Wednesday's matchup against the Mystics, it would be fair to assume that Reese aims to be more efficient from the field moving forward.
