Angel Reese slammed the media for focusing on the next Olympic squad right after the U.S. Women’s Basketball team won gold in Paris. The critique came after the WNBA rookie spotted an ESPN article on prospects for Los Angeles’ 2028 summer games. Considering the piece dropped the same day as Team USA’s historic win, Reese quickly shut down any conversation on X. “Let’s just congratulate these women & let them enjoy this moment,” expressed the Chicago Sky star. “Leave me out of this until my time comes!” Though Reese would rather her name be kept out of…
Angel Reese was in no mood to speak to the media after the Sky’s latest loss. On Thursday night, Reese broke the team’s franchise record for most rebounds in a single season. After the game, one reporter asked Reese about the record. A visibly upset Reese immediately shut down the reporter because she didn’t want to talk about the record after the Sky had just gotten blown out by the Phoenix Mercury. “I don’t want to hear about no records.” The Sky currently have a 10-15 record after their…
CHICAGO — The Chicago Sky busted the rust from their WNBA Olympic break with a home matchup against the Phoenix Mercury on Thursday. The game marked former All-Star guard Kahleah Copper’s first time back at Wintrust Arena since she was traded to Phoenix in February of 2024.

Caitlin Clark beat three USA Olympic gold medal winners on her return to the WNBA Friday night – but Indiana Fever burned a 28-point lead at one stage in a dramatic win over Phoenix Mercury. Clark was sensational in the first half especially as she came flying out the blocks after her month-long break from league play due to the Paris Games. But the 98-89 victory did not reflect on how tense the game was at times for her team. At the halftime interval Clark had scored 16 points and Fever at one stage led Mercury by 48-20. But…
Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese has been a force on the basketball court over the past few years but faced an even bigger force when she played against WNBA veteran Brittney Griner.

The Mercury won the game 85-65 after Griner returned to the States after helping Team USA bring home another gold medal at the Paris Olympics. In the game, Griner schooled Reese and the…
Angel Reese is probably going to make WNBA history as a rookie. However, her astonishing number of double-doubles are marred by awful shooting percentages while Caitlin Clark continues to shoot the lights out! The No. 1 overall pick is the clear frontrunner for ‘Rookie of the Year’ and it’s not particularly close. Reese broke a franchise record on Thursday night in an ugly 20-point loss to the Phoenix Mercury. She passed Sylvia Fowles for the most offensive rebounds in a single season in Chicago Sky history. However, the result overshadowed the individual statistic. Reese was quick to shut…
