Angel Reese Shines Ahead of Showdown with League-Leading Lynx
The Chicago Sky are set to return to the court on Sunday night in one of their toughest matchups of the season a road clash against the Minnesota Lynx, who currently sit atop the WNBA standings with a dominant 16-2 record. The Sky, at 5-11, will look to build momentum following a much-needed win last weekend.
That win came in impressive fashion against the Los Angeles Sparks, led by second-year sensation Angel Reese. The 22-year-old forward delivered her most complete performance of the season, notching 24 points, 16 rebounds, and seven assists in a game that showcased her growing all-around game and leadership.
Though the Sky have struggled to consistently find wins since drafting Reese with the No. 7 overall pick in 2023, the LSU alum has quickly emerged as a franchise cornerstone and one of the league’s brightest young talents. Her high motor, relentless rebounding, and improved offensive game have turned heads across the WNBA and now she’s at the heart of something even bigger.
On Sunday, ahead of the highly anticipated matchup with Minnesota, Reese was the focus of a major announcement that further cemented her growing stardom. While full details are expected to follow, the recognition highlights the cultural and athletic impact Reese is having both on and off the court.
As the Sky prepare to battle the red-hot Lynx, all eyes will once again be on Reese not just for her performance, but for the continued rise of a player who’s quickly becoming one of the league’s most marketable and influential figures.
