They've also fined the Sky $5k.with during the game Saturday, and some may have thought the league would reprimand her for that ... but, so far, that's not the case.
There's been tension between Angel and Caitlin in recent months, despite AR once assuring the public her beef with Clark existed only within the confines of the court. The loss to the Fever seemed to really upset Reese -- who makes just shy of $74k a year, not including endorsements -- and, she blew off reporters.online, writing her team pulled out an impressive win because of their squad cohesion rather than"one player on our charter flight.
