Angel Reese still needs to work on her layups. Earlier this year, WNBA legend Lisa Leslie vowed to help Reese with her layup game after Reese struggled mightily shooting from under the rim.
“The biggest advice I have for you is going to be how you shoot your layups, period,” “We’re going to fix that. That’s fixable for you and I think that’s probably the biggest.”
“I think your shot from the outside is improving. I love that you, your ball handling is good, your defense is improved… I love the fact that you are putting so much pressure on them defensively and just the idea that you want to get better. I love that.”
Lisa Leslie gives Angel Reese advice ahead of her sophomore season:

Unfortunately, Reese is still not good at shooting layups for whatever reason. On Thursday night, Reese went viral when she missed four straight layups in the span of 15 seconds during the Sky’s game against the NY Liberty.
