Chicago Sky 10 of its last 11 games lost, including eight of the nine games since the All-Star break, and the absence of striker Angel Reese is a great cause.
Reese, who leads the league in the apostasy (12.6 per game) and leads the sky in scoring (14.2 points per game) and ranks second in the team in passes (3.7 per game), deals with a back injury that was marginalized in the last five games.
Its official status is daily, and she lost the loss of Chicago 92-70 to Indiana fever (which was without her star Caitlin Clark) because she remained in Chicago to rehabilitate the injured.
Sky is on its way to finishing its worst victory since 2006 (.

Rice was seen on Monday watching her teammates on the Sky Team Practice team from side lines in street clothes. Like Clark, Reese coach was not very coming with specific details about the date of expecting to see her playing after that.
But both teams are likely to be careful in relieving the star players to this mix. Chicago is only 1-7 without a Reyes this season, and with the team’s assignment in the qualifiers for the second consecutive season, it will not be completely surprising if Rais played her last game this year.
