Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky suffered an 84-71 loss to the Seattle Storm on Sunday.
Yet, an uncomfortable moment from the Sky’s postgame press conference is stealing the most attention.
At one point in the press conference, Reese was being asked a Zoom reporter’s question when an argument about an “intimate relationship” could be heard on the Zoom audio.
Reese, teammate Marina Mabrey, and Chicago head coach Teresa Weatherspoon were all stunned about what they were hearing.

Julia Poe of the Chicago Tribune has since noted that the sound stemmed from a scene from the “Big Bang Theory” on a Zoom feed.
But fans are still finding the strange moment hilarious.
“when you forget to mute your mic during the Zoom call,” one fan wrote along with a video of the moment.
“OH MY GOD THE MIC IS ALWAYS HOT. ALWAYS,” said another.
Another Sky fan posted a video of the “Big Bang Theory” scene where the conversation stemmed from.
Regardless of what went into the postgame press conference moment, fans are finding the reactions of Reese, Mabrey, and Weatherspoon to be hilarious.
Hopefully nobody got fired as a result of the mishap, which Reese appeared to be alluding to.
