00:0078-69. They cover as a six and a half point home favorite in the Windy City, under 155 and a half.

00:11They were well in control in the final few minutes of the game and Angel Reese was stuck

00:17on nine points. Up by seven, under 10 ticks left, in possession of the basketball,

00:25Chicago makes a concerted effort to get Angel Reese the ball down on the low block. She goes

00:32at the veteran Tina Charles who fouls Reese with 6.1 seconds remaining. She hits both free throws

00:38at the charity stripe. She ends up with 11 points and 13 boards to keep the streak afloat. Many

00:46question whether it was stat padding. It might have looked as such. It was a thousand percent

00:52stat padding. Like now we're in Russell Westbrook territory at this point because if you watch that

01:10sets up on the low block and screams for the basketball. So from a betting perspective,

01:14that is key. We saw the graphic yesterday where it's like, how many games in a row is

01:22just gunning for it. Like the Westbrook triple-double numbers, use that to your betting

01:25advantage. Outside of the game plan, they're trying to get her double-doubles. That's an

01:29important piece of knowledge.
