Reese Hit in Face by Edwards as Flagrant 1 Flips Momentum in Dream-Sun Clash
In a 104-69 Atlanta Dream win over the Connecticut Sun, Angel Reese was smacked in the face by Aaliyah Edwards, with Edwards’ foul later upgraded to Flagrant 1. Reese shot just 3-for-13 but pulled down 15 rebounds, and Brittney Griner swatted several of her early attempts. She finished the night with eight points and 15 rebounds, and the Dream highlighted a sequence of blocks as they pulled away. Reese will represent Team USA alongside Caitlin Clark at the FIBA World Cup, as Flagrant fouls remain a major storyline in 2026.
