Chicago Sky’s Angel Reese makes vow before Fever game

The Chicago Sky finished their preseason with a 92-87 loss to the Minnesota Lynx on Saturday night in front of 7,615 fans at Target Center. The Sky split their preseason series with the Lynx and finished with a 2-1 record in May, with their other win coming against the Brazilian national team.

The Sky are now turning their attention to a much-anticipated regular season opener against Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever on Saturday. Second-year star Angel Reese has been working on improving her offense in new head coach Tyler Marsh’s scheme during training camp.

She made a vow before the game, promising to be better than 2024.

“You’ve got to get better every year,” Reese said via the Chicago Sun-Times. “I can’t be the same player as last year. I played well last year and definitively could’ve been better, but you just continue to get better every year, and that’s what I’m going to do.”

Reese wasn’t better on Saturday night. She went 2-of-8 shooting (25%) and added three rebounds and five assists in 25 minutes. She was a -1 for the contest and was outrebounded by Kamilla Cardoso, who finished with seven rebounds.

Reese wasn’t helped with Courtney Vandersloot missing the game with a rib injury, as the guard opens up Reese’s path to the basket.

The Chicago Sky believe Reese has potential on offense

Reese missed her only three-point attempt of the night. However, Marsh said he liked Reese’s attempts against the Lynx. He believes Reese showed potential despite poor numbers on Saturday.

“It continues to showcase the versatility that I’ve been talking about with Angel and not putting limitations on who she can be as a player,” Marsh said. “She was all over, and that’s how we want her to be. That’s how we see her potential moving forward.”

Reese only has a week to improve her shooting before taking on the Fever.
