Overview
- Reese was upgraded to questionable for Tuesday and will be a game-time decision after practicing and participating in shootaround, with coach Tyler Marsh saying it is “looking pretty good.”
- Marsh said Reese looked strong in recent sessions, noting she fit back into the game plan as the team continues to evaluate her back day to day.
- If cleared, she will play under a minutes restriction and could take the floor alongside new point guard Sevgi Uzun for the first time.
- Chicago has gone 1-5 in a recent stretch without Reese and sits at 8-25, a context Marsh has cited in taking a cautious approach to her recovery.
- Reese alluded to a disconnect over her recovery, saying she would address it after the season, as her off-court profile grows with a Sept. 18 Reebok signature shoe launch and a foundation event that provided 2,000-plus backpacks to Chicago students.
