Angel Reese arrived at the Chicago Sky's Wintrust Arena looking incredibly stylish as she prepared to face the New York Liberty Tuesday night. 

The matchup against Sabrina Ionescu and co. was the first game for the Sky since the WNBA rookie was slapped with a fine and teammate Chennedy Carter caused controversy with a brutal flagrant foul on Caitlin Clark. 

Reese faced her old college rival as a professional for the first time on Saturday. However, during the game Clark was bodychecked and shoved to the ground by Carter, with ex-LSU icon Reese seen jumping off the bench to celebrate the violent action.

Reese has since been handed a fine - but not for her reaction to the on-court incident, despite it causing plenty of controversy online.

Instead, she will have to pay the WNBA $1,000 for 'failing to make herself available to the media for interviews following the game'.

But the seventh overall pick in this year's draft appeared to have brushed off the tumult as she arrived for Chicago's first clash since the incident. 

More to follow. 

Earlier this season, the @ChicagoSky defeated the Liberty and they’re looking to do it again in tonight’s matchup 🍿
