On Wednesday, Angel Reese steps back onto Chicago’s floor for a WNBA preseason matchup. This time, it's as a visitor.
CHAMBLEE, GA ― On Wednesday, Angel Reese plays in Chicago at Wintrust Arena. For the first time in her career, it won't be in a Sky jersey. Reese was traded on April 6 to the Atlanta Dream after two seasons with the Sky.
Now, three weeks after leaving the Windy City, Reese will return to the place where she faced several challenges in her young career. The Dream forward did not express any animosity towards the franchise. On Monday, during Atlanta's training camp, Reese was asked if she had anything to prove to her former teammates.
"No. Just another exciting opportunity for me to be in Chicago. I love my experience in Chicago," Reese said.
"It was amazing. Seeing a lot of familiar faces on Wednesday is gonna be good to see. " Wednesday's preseason game is the first of Year 3 for the two-time All-Star.
