Much like fellow first-round draftee and college basketball star Caitlin Clark, the former LSU star faced plenty of skepticism when she entered the WNBA about how her game would translate, especially against more physical bigs in the W.

Through two preseason games, Angel has answered the questions with the eye test and her stats. Her impact felt in the courtside video from the Sky’s win against the Storm matches her preseason averages of 13 points, 7 rebounds and 2 steals per game in 21 minutes per contest.
