Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese took to Instagram to reflect on her remarkable rookie season, which has come to an untimely end due to a wrist injury requiring surgery. Ahead of the Sky’s 93-88 loss to the Phoenix Mercury on Sunday, Reese shared a heartfelt post, commemorating her inaugural WNBA campaign.
“ROOKIE YEAR WAS ONE FOR THE BOOKS,” Reese wrote, accompanied by a photo collage from various games throughout the 2024 season. At just 22 years old, Reese has made an indelible mark on the league, and her absence will be deeply felt as the Sky fight for a playoff spot.
With two games remaining, Chicago’s postseason hopes remain alive, but Reese’s return is highly unlikely, even if the team qualifies. As she shifts her focus to recovery, fans and teammates alike will miss her energetic presence on the court.
Reese’s impressive rookie season has set the stage for a bright future in the WNBA. As she looks to bounce back from injury, expectations are high for her continued growth and success.
