Angel Reese , coming off a 14-point, 12-rebound performance in a Game 4 loss, looked serious when cameras caught her arriving at the arena.

Reese was wearing black pants and a t-shirt that said "Protect Black Women." She also appeared to arrive with a clutch similar to the one that Jordyn Woods wore throughout the New York Knicks' run to the championship earlier this year.
