Chicago Sky's Statement on Kamilla Cardoso Draws Attention

Chicago Sky's Statement on Kamilla Cardoso Draws Attention originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Angel Reese is well on her way to what should be her second straight WNBA All-Star Game. Despite the Chicago Sky's poor start to the season--they are currently 3-7 and have the third-worst record in the league--Reese has been an absolute force for her team.

Another key player who has had a significant role for the squad this season is fellow sophomore Kamilla Cardoso. The 6-foot-7 center has been Reese's partner in the frontcourt, and there's no denying that these two represent one of the most promising frontcourt pairings in the entire WNBA. This is exactly why the Sky believe Cardoso deserves a spot in the All-Star squad alongside Reese. On Monday, the team took to social media to urge the fans to vote for the former Syracuse and South Carolina standout. "⭐️VOTE KAMILLA CARDOSO⭐️she dropped a career-high 23 PTS earlier this season and continues to be a FORCE in the paint. ALL-STAR HER‼️" the team posted on Instagram.

She's been a central figure as Chicago's starting center, which should be the case for Cardoso the rest of the way. The fans on social media have voiced their reaction to the team's plea, and it is clear that they, too, strongly believe that Cardoso deserves an All-Star nod. "Let's get milla her first all star appearance 👏🏾" a comment on Instagram read. "She has my vote young queen kamilla ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️" said another. "I vote Milla & Angel every day," declared a supporter. Chicago Sky center Kamilla Cardoso (10) during a Gorski-Imagn Images "Vote & Vote & Vote then VOTE SOME MORE!" a reaction read.

Voting will be open through June 28, which means that Sky supporters still have a lot of time to try and get Cardoso in the big game. The 24-year-old has a lot of competition across the league, though, which means that her fans will need to work hard to get her to Indianapolis for the All-Star Game.
