With just over eight minutes to go in the first half of Saturday’s game against the Connecticut Sun, Chicago Sky coach Tyler Marsh was ejected. He had a heated exchange with a referee, and Angel Reese and Michaela Onyenwere had to step in to hold him back.

Marsh was upset over a no-call in the paint as Elizabeth Williams drove for a layup. He went straight at the official and didn’t hold back, resulting in an almost immediate ejection from the game. Tanisha Wright stepped in as the acting head coach for the remainder of the contest.

As Marsh argued with the referee, Reese and Onyenwere were part of the group to hold Marsh back and possibly avoid further punishment. Members of the coaching staff also helped settle him down and guide him toward the locker room at Wintrust Arena.
