Chicago Sky coach sends strong message on Angel Reese.
Chicago Sky Coach Has Strong Words for Angel Reese on Wednesday originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
The Chicago Sky were recently defeated by the Indiana Fever, while playing without WNBA star Angel Reese.
Reese was out of the game with an injury, while the Fever were missing their biggest star, Caitlin Clark, who has been out of the lineup for quite some time.
The Sky star has been working through a back injury that has plagued her during her second WNBA season.
After the Sky were blown out 92-70 by the Fever, all eyes turned to their next matchup against the Connecticut Sun.
Ahead of their matchup against the Sun, Chicago Sky coach Tyler Marsh gave an update on Reese.
He mentioned that there is no timetable for her return, and Reese remains out of the lineup heading into the latter half of the WNBA season.
While sharing an update on Reese's injury, Marsh also shared high praise for the WNBA star.
"She wants to be out there," Marsh said. "She's a competitor, she's a fighter, she's a winner. It's hard for her not being out there for her teammates, but we want her to be as healthy as possible when she is ready to come back."
There is still no timetable for Angel Reese's return to the court.
