Speaking before Tuesday's game against the Wings, Reese would be asked about her first game with Atlanta and admitted how it was "rough" for her. However, she would express confidence in being better for the Dallas matchup.
"It was obviously rough for me personally, but being able to fight on both ends of the floor is something I'll always know. The shot is not falling, I can get it back, but I know I'll have a better night tonight, but my team always puts a lot of confidence into me, coaches put a lot of confidence into me, and just tell me to keep going and keep going," Reese said, via Drake Keeler.
In Reese's first game for the Dream, she scored 11 points on four of 11 shooting from the field to go along with 14 rebounds, three blocks, two steals, and two assists.

Paige Bueckers shouts out Dream's Angel Reese
While Reese appears to be her toughest critic, she has received praise for her game, even from the opponents, as Wings star Paige Bueckers was asked about the LSU product. She would mention how she is "a paint presence on both sides."
"On both ends of the floor, she [Reese] is just a paint presence on both sides," Bueckers said, via Angel Report on X, formerly Twitter. "Defensively, she can switch and guard one through five."
"Offensively, she's a great screener, great roller, great passer, and can finish around the rim, and provides a different spark for them. Her energy is contagious. She brings confidence to her teammates. So really affects both sides of the ball, and she definitely helps her team a lot," Bueckers continued.
