Overview

  • Connecticut beat Chicago 94-84 at Wintrust Arena, with the Sun stretching a 21-point lead and fending off a late Sky push.
  • Head coach Tyler Marsh was ejected early in the second quarter after charging onto the floor to protest a no-call on Elizabeth Williams.
  • An official pool report said Marsh aggressively approached an official and that postgame review showed contact on the disputed play that should have been called.
  • Angel Reese finished with 11 points and 11 rebounds for her 45th career double-double, tying Tina Charles for the most across a player's first two WNBA seasons and marking her 19th this year.
  • The loss dropped the Sky to 9-27 and confirmed elimination from the playoff race, and Reese later suggested roster changes are likely as numerous veterans approach free agency.
