Angel Reese's Unexpected Gesture Catches Attention During Sky-Liberty Game
The Chicago Sky's game against the New York Liberty got prime-time treatment on ESPN Tuesday night in Barclays Center.

That meant a 30-minute "WNBA Countdown" before the game, veteran reporter Holly Rowe patrolling the sidelines and plenty of coverage of the Sky's most popular player, second-year forward Angel Reese.
Those elements collided during a mid-game interview that took place between the first and second quarters.
Rowe pulled aside Reese to ask about Chicago's slow start to the game, which saw the struggling Sky trail the defending WNBA champions 26-15 after the first 10 minutes. Reese's response was more than Rowe bargained for.

After the 23-year-old answered the first question, she identified something wrong with the reporter's eyelash and offered a helping hand.

"Are you fixing my eyelash?" Rowe said, flustered in the middle of her next question. "I love that, thank you!"
The wholesome moment caught the attention of WNBA fans on social media.
"Angel Reese just fixing Holly Rowe's eyelash on national television mid-interview was such a moment," wrote a fan on X.
"Angel Reese fixing Holly Rowe's eye lashes is a classic TV moment," echoed another. "Don't @ me."
Reese's highly-acclaimed sense of style off the court and the friendly persona she displays on her "Unapologetically Angel" podcast shined through in the interaction.
"Angel is such a girl's girl," praised a fan. "She don't even like holly rowe like that and she still fixed her eyelash mid interview."

"Angel fixing Holly Rowe's eyelash," one user said jokingly. "She said girl you look a mess."
"Angel Reese adjusting Holly Rowe's eyelash during a first quarter interview is something you won't see in any other league," wrote a WNBA fan.
At the time of the interview, Reese had seven points in the first quarter on 3-for-4 shooting while the rest of her team had eight points on 4-for-15 shooting.

Indiana Fever vs. Chicago Sky: TV channel, time, how to watch
The Indiana Fever and Chicago Sky meet again. The Fever travel to Chicago to take on the Sky for the third time this season. Sunday's highly-anticipated matchup was moved to the United Center, home of the NBA's Chicago Bulls, to accommodate a larger crowd. However, the game between the two teams could be missing some major star power as Fever guard Caitlin Clark and Sky forward Angel Reese have recently been limited by injuries. Clark has missed three consecutive games with a left groin injury, while Reese was ruled out of the Sky's 95-57 blowout loss to the Seattle Storm on Thursday due to her back. Indiana leads the regular season series against the Sky 2-0. The Fever opened the season on May 17 with a dominant 93-58 win over the Sky at home. Clark recorded a triple-double in the win with 20 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists, four blocks and two steals. In the second matchup on June 7, Indiana beat the Sky 79-52 in Chicago without Clark.
