Chicago Sky, of Reese
Digest more
Chicago Sky’s Angel Reese continues to solidify her position as a trailblazer both on and off the court. The 23-year-old’s striking presence in the WNBA and her influence in fashion had inspired fans and shown them that nothing is impossible. In her latest Instagram post, the Sky forward spoke about breaking barriers and achieving milestones.
Out of halftime, Van Lith scored five, Ariel Atkins added four, and Rebecca Allen chipped in three to keep the Sky close, despite a 13-point explosion from Collier for the Lynx. Chicago trailed by just three heading into the fourth.
Before the Chicago Sky took Hailey Van Lith with the No. 11 pick in the WNBA draft, Angel Reese had been advocating for the Sky to pick her former LSU teammate.
Reese's chase down of Clark to mimic her "You Can't See Me" celebration in the final moments of the game pitted the two young stars against each other. Now, both of these young talents have rabid fanbases that are intensely divided. While the two seem to have no issues with each other, the media enjoys painting a different story.
For Reese, the disappointment of landing in ninth place was compounded by the fact she missed Chicago's final six games because of a wrist injury. The Sky went 1-5 during that stretch, and their 89-58 blowout at the hands of Washington was particularly costly.

CHICAGO — Hailey Van Lith has her very own hype woman in Angel Reese. The two played just one season together at LSU, but it was enough time to create a bond that’s continued beyond Baton Rouge. Might have played a role in the two reuniting with the Chicago Sky, too.
Angel Reese does not want to discuss Caitlin Clark as a second-year player even though she was the one who could not keep the WNBA Rookie of the Year's
