Chicago Sky fans got an update straight from the top this week — and it came with some strong words for rookie standout Angel Reese. On Wednesday, Sky head coach didn’t hold back when talking about Reese’s impact, her work ethic, and her role with the team.

Even though Angel has been away from the court recently, the coach made it clear she’s still a huge part of the Sky’s identity. “She’s competitive, she’s committed, and she’s got the drive you want in a player,” the coach said. That kind of praise is music to the ears of Sky Nation.

🏀 Respect Beyond the Box Score

It’s not just about points and rebounds for Angel. The coach highlighted how she brings energy to every practice, supports her teammates, and shows leadership beyond her years. Those intangibles — the things you can’t always measure — are what make her such a valuable part of the squad.

🙏 A Message of Belief

While fans are eager to see her back in action, the coach’s comments were a reminder that the organization believes in her, both now and for the future. “We know what she’s capable of,” the coach added, hinting that when Reese returns, she’ll be ready to make a statement.

🚀 Looking Ahead

For now, the Sky will continue to battle on the court while Angel focuses on her recovery. But with that kind of trust and encouragement coming from the head coach, it’s clear she’s got the full support of her team.
