Angel Reese knocked down on dangerous foul

Connecticut Sun forward Alyssa Thomas got ejected Saturday for committing a reckless foul on Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese.

The Sun led 59-58 over the Sky with under four minutes left in the third quarter at Wintrust Arena in Chicago, Ill.

Sky guard Dana Evans missed a layup, which led to Thomas and Reese battling for the rebound in the paint. As Reese jumped to snag the offensive board, Thomas grabbed Reese by the neck and slammed her down into the hardwood.

Thomas was assessed a Flagrant 2 foul and subsequently tossed from the contest. The 4-time All-Star exited with 9 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 assists.

Despite losing one of its best players, the Sun still managed to remain unbeaten. The Sun won 86-82 to improve to 5-0 for the season.

Reese continued her streak of scoring in double figures to start her WNBA career. In her fourth career game, the LSU alum finished with 13 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists.
