Nothing seems to be going Angel Reese’s way right now. Once she dreamed of pushing the Chicago Sky into the playoffs, but a defeat-ridden 2025 campaign has crushed those hopes. Now, instead of celebrating a postseason berth, she’s bickering with her teammates, ready to walk off. To make matters worse, her back injury has flared up again. Her one-and-a-half-game ban turned into a two-game benching for Chi-town Barbie. But what did her coach offer? Nothing instrumental.

Following an 80-66 loss against the Aces, Chicago Sky head coach Tyler Marsh gave an update on Reese’s injury. However, it sounded merely like coach-speak. “Yeah, she reported to us, during pregame, and so in conjunction with Angel and the medical staff, we wanted to be as cautious as possible. So that was the decision,” he said.
When asked what steps are they taking to prevent it from flaring up again, Marsh has a stock reply ready again, “Yeah, I think we’ve got to gauge it day by day. Obviously, with two games remaining, I know Angel wants to be out there, and so we’ll continue to work with her and our medical team and see what the best method of approach is moving forward.”
