Before the Sun-Sky game, Reese told the media that she admired Thomas while she lived in Maryland.
“These are ladies I watched while I was at Maryland. Alyssa Thomas and Bri Jones and players I’ve always admired and watched.

Reese might have a different opinion of Thomas now.
On Saturday night, Thomas was ejected when she slapped Reese in the throat and threw her to the ground.
