Has the WNBA issued a fine of $ 80 to Bria Hartley for pulling Angel Reese’s hair? Demystified viral affirmation

Bria Hartley, the Connecticut solar guard, pulled the hair of the star of the sky of Chicago Angel Reese in the third quarter of the Sunday match between the two teams. The fault has encouraged Reese to react, waving his arms first before looking at the start of the sun. Connecticut attackers Olivia Nelson-Oododa and Tina Charles defended their teammate and confronted the Chi Barbie.

After the match, NBA Centel, a parody account on X (formerly Twitter), jumped into the controversy by writing:

“The WNBA issued a fine of $ 80.50 to Brita Hartley for intentionally pulled the hair of Angel Reese, before taxes.”

After examination, the arbitrators gave a technical fault to Charles and Reese, who argued with violation while the teammates and the officials separated them. Hartley fled with a loose ball fault. A personal fault does not deserve a penalty or a fine, making the NBA Centel post a hilarious attempt to troll the incident.

The game occurred after Kamilla Cardoso, guarded by Nelson-Ododa, smothered a 3-foot bank. Reese opted for the offensive rebound against the former teammate of Chicago Sky, Marina Mabrey. While the stars striker tried to take control of the ball, Hartley slapped the ball with his right hand but pulled Reese’s hair with his left.

After a brief lull, the match continued without further incident. Reese collected five points, two assists and one flight in the third quarter. She helped the Chicago Sky to take an advance of 59-54 when entering the fourth quarter.

Meanwhile, Bria Hartley led the Sun offensive and contributed to Tina Charles. Connecticut kept the game near but had a hard time getting pace because of reversals.
