Chicago Sky Star 'Done' With Angel Reese After Thursday's Antics
The Chicago Sky may have to work through chemistry problems just two games into the 2025 season.
During Thursday night's game against the New York Liberty, All-Star forward Angel Reese failed to make a single shot despite being on the floor for 28 minutes. There was a moment where she refused to pass the ball to her teammates because she was hellbent on scoring in the paint.

Once Reese missed her third attempt, Sky center Kamilla Cardoso walked away from her teammates. Although she may have been getting a head-start on playing defense, it certainly came across as if she was fed up with Reese's antics.
After all, Reese could've kicked the ball out to any of her teammates. Instead, she kept forcing the issue against the Liberty's ferocious defense.
WNBA fans are convinced that Cardoso is done playing with Reese, albeit that hasn't been said by any reliable sources.

"Kamilla Cardoso is SO tired of watching this [expletive]," another fan said.

"Kamilla need to get out of Chicago asap. Go somewhere where she dominate the post area. Angel in the way," a third fan commented.
"Everyone been saying it. The team tries to play through the wrong player that it makes it miserable for everyone else. Good coaches / players don't force anything," a social media user pointed out.
The Sky are now 0-2 this season, with both losses coming in blowout fashion.
Next up for the Sky is a showdown with the Los Angeles Sparks. Perhaps they'll get in the win column this Sunday.
For now though, Chicago has a few issues to work through, on and off the hardwood.
