Angel Reese’s Courtside Moment With Chicago Sky Coach Goes Viral.
Angel Reese was not on the court for the Chicago Sky’s game against the Phoenix Mercury on Sunday, September 15. This is after the rookie sensation suffered a season-ending wrist injury that required her to undergo surgery. Despite not being able to help her team during the game, Reese has been doing everything she can to be a supportive teammate as the Sky battle for a spot in the WNBA Playoffs.
This was exactly the case on Sunday night as Reese put on her coaching cap to try and assist her team from the sidelines. At one point in the game, the 22-year-old was having a rather animated conversation with Chicago head coach Teresa Weatherspoon — a moment that immediately went viral on social media.
Unfortunately for Chicago, this just wasn’t the case on Sunday. They suffered their third straight loss after falling to the Mercury, 93-88. The Sky now have a record of 13-25 and are in a three-way tie with the Washington Mystics and the Atlanta Dream for the eighth and final playoff spot.
