"Angel Reese and her Chicago Sky teammates will look to get back on the winning track as they travel to the nation's capital on Thursday to face the winless Washington Mystics.
The Sky (3-5) have lost back-to-back games − falling to Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever last Saturday in a game marred by a hard foul on Clark by Chicago's Chennedy Carter, and then losing to the New York Liberty on Tuesday as Reese was ejected after getting hit with two quick technical fouls.
The rookie forward from LSU seems to have embraced her role in bringing more attention to the WNBA, recently telling USA TODAY Sports' Nancy Armour: 'Obviously, everybody wants this (increased spotlight) and has wanted this for a long time, especially my teammates who’ve been in this league for a little while now ... We've all been given these opportunities and we don't take them for granted. So I'm just happy to be a part of it and continue to help grow the game as much as I can.'"
