Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky (3-8) are not having the greatest run this season and the team's poor performance was bound to affect their star forward's chances of becoming a starter in this year's All-Star. It looks like the Sky's poor form has indeed affected Reese's votes in the All-Star fan voting.
On Friday, Indy Star's Chloe Peterson shared the first return results from All-Star fan voting on an X post. While Caitlin Clark led the chart with 515,993 votes, Angel Reese failed to crack the top 10 and held the No. 13 rank on the list with 173,363 votes.

Angel Reese shows gratitude to Chicago amid major announcement
After spending just a year and a half at the Sky, Angel Reese has become deeply connected with Chicago's community. On Friday, ahead of her matchup against the Phoenix Mercury, the Sky forward talked with "Chicago State of Mind Sports."
In her brief interview, Reese expressed gratitude towards the community and announced a collaborative project between her and Cash App. The Sky star is set to unviel a custom basketball court at Oakwood Beach in Chicago.
"I didn’t know exactly what it was going to look like,” Reese said. “I knew they were doing the court, and that’s something I really emphasize, giving back to the community. Chicago has poured so much into me. They’ve done so many great things for me in just a year and a half, and I’m super happy to call this place home."
Reese has grown her brand significantly while playing in the WNBA. She has bagged major deals with brands like Beats by Dre, McDonald's and General Mills' Reese's puffs, with the most notable on being Reebok, who are scheduled to release the Sky star's signature sneaker line next year.
