Chicago Sky vs Las Vegas Aces preview

The Sky enter the matchup clouded by controversy after All-Star Angel Reese publicly criticized her team, comments that reportedly didn’t sit well with teammates. The franchise announced she will serve a first-half suspension against the Aces for “statements detrimental to the team.”

"The Chicago Sky values the safety, respect, and well-being of every player," the team said in a statement on Friday. "We are committed to accountability so our players can stay focused on playing basketball. This matter has been handled and resolved internally, and we are moving forward as a team."

Reese’s absence strips Chicago of her 14.7 points and 12.6 rebounds per game while opening more space for Aces star A’ja Wilson to dominate. Wilson has powered Las Vegas’ 13-game winning streak, averaging 27.2 ppg and 12.1 rpg in that span.

The Aces boast the league’s top net rating (plus-13.2) over the past 13 games, while the Sky rank second-to-last (minus-9.5) and sit in the bottom three for both offensive and defensive efficiency. Chicago is just 1-10 this season without Reese, and her suspension makes the matchup even steeper.

This matchup heavily favors Las Vegas, and the Aces should extend their win streak through both games against Chicago. They close the regular season Thursday at the LA Sparks, who could already be eliminated by then, setting up Las Vegas to roll into the postseason on a high.
