The Chicago Sky have now dropped eight straight games heading into Tuesday night’s matchup against the Washington Mystics. For the third consecutive game, they will be without Angel Reese. This marks the sixth game Reese has missed this season,

In her second WNBA season, Reese has taken a leap in the right direction. She has shown many improvements on the court. At this point, she is the clear franchise cornerstone for the Sky moving forward.

On Thursday, before the Chicago Sky face Brittney Griner and the Atlanta Dream, Tyler Marsh shared some news on Reese. Marsh revealed that Reese continues to be day-to-day, currently nursing a back injury. He also mentioned that while she has been inactive, Reese is involved in meetings and is focused on returning to game action.
