Overview

  • Friday’s 88-70 loss to the Atlanta Dream extended Chicago’s losing streak to three games and dropped them to a 2-7 record at the bottom of the Eastern Conference.
  • Angel Reese delivered 12 points and nine rebounds but shot just 4-for-10 from the field and recorded three turnovers against the Dream.
  • Teammates repeatedly ignored Reese’s calls for the ball in the post, culminating in a shot-clock violation and underlining ongoing trust issues.
  • Injuries and uneven bench production have strained the Sky’s depth and heightened the need for more consistent scoring contributions.
  • Chicago will aim to end its slump when it faces the Connecticut Sun on Sunday at noon ET.
