Angel Reese is on the move in one of the most notable early-season transactions in the WNBA, with the Chicago Sky trading the standout forward to the Atlanta Dream in a deal centered on future draft assets. According to NBC News, Chicago will receive first-round picks in 2027 and 2028 as part of the trade, along with a swap of second-round selections in 2028. The move marks the end of Reese’s two-season run with the Sky, where she quickly established herself as one of the league’s most productive young players.
Reese, 23, made an immediate impact after being selected seventh overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft . She earned All-Rookie honors in her debut season and went on to become a two-time All-Star. Perhaps most notably, she led the league in rebounding in both of her first two seasons, averaging 12.
