Angel Reese is making headlines for yet another time. The Chicago Sky star became the first player ever ejected from a game in the newly launched Unrivaled 3-on-3 winter basketball league. Playing for the Rose Basketball Club, Reese was dismissed in the second quarter with under a minute remaining.
While Rose held a 35-27 lead over Laces Basketball Club, the following moment came as a total surprise for the team. The ejection followed a foul on Laces forward Tiffany Hayes, during which Reese taunted her. Soon, the scuffle turned into an argument with the official, resulting in her second technical foul.
After her ejection, a video surfaced on social media showing Reese laughing and cracking jokes from the sidelines. In her own tweet, she humorously captioned the video to let her play. However, it was funny as she was peeping behind the arena’s structure, looking like she was behind bars.
“Free me,” Reese captioned her retweet.

In response, Ionescu posted a single-word message, “lol,” on X, leaving many to speculate about the prompt for her reaction.
Fans were quick to connect Ionescu’s post to Reese’s remark. Many suggested it was a playful retort after Ionescu’s impressive performance, where she scored 32 points to help her team defeat Reese’s squad 75-63.
Beyond the courtside drama, there was also significant news regarding Ionescu’s former teammate, Satou Sabally, who was traded to the Phoenix Mercury. This situation sparked further speculation about Ionescu’s potential reaction. However, since Sabally was signed by the Dallas Wings, she had limited choices in her transition. Until Ionescu clarifies her post, it remains a topic of speculation.
