Many fans continued to laud the camaraderie between Reese and Carter online, touting them as one of the best duos in the WNBA:

"Angel was supposed to get 30 but those fouls and had to sit on the bench for most of the 3rd qt. She was on fire. Her and Chennedy were just going back and forth. Then those two 3's Angel hit. Knew once she got out her head she would start shooting them. They did so well," a fan wrote.

"Really a dynamic duo," commented another fan.

One fan compared Chicago's duo to the iconic LA Lakers duo of Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant:

"SHAQ/KOBE WNBA EDITION."
