Is Reese playing tonight following her statement detrimental to the Sky?The Sky announced on Friday that Reese won't be playing in the first half of the game against the Aces.

She also spoke to them privately, with coach Tyler Marsh not revealing any details about the conversation. Some Sky players were reportedly "blindsided" by the remarks amid another losing season in the Windy City."Because of statements detrimental to the team made by Angel Reese during league-mandated media, she will not play in the first half of the game on September 7 against the Las Vegas Aces," the Sky announced. "This matter has been handled and resolved internally, and we are moving forward as a team."While Angel Reese sits down for the first 24 minutes of the Chicago Sky-Las Vegas Aces game, she'll be available to play in the second half.

"I really didn't intentionally mean to put down my teammates, because they've been through this with me throughout the whole year. ... I want to apologize to my teammates, which I already have about the article and how it was misconstrued about what was said. And I just have to be better with my language."Reese is averaging 14.7 points, 12.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.5 steals per game this season, while shooting 45.8% from the field.
