Chicago Sky coach wants Angel Reese's role to expand in sophomore year

Chicago Sky coach Tyler Marsh wants Angel Reese's role in the team to expand in her sophomore year, particularly on offense.

Speaking to media earlier this week, Marsh, who was an assistant with the Las Vegas Aces, shared that he wants the All-Star forward to be more dynamic on offense:

"(We want her) Everywhere. There is no limit. I think that we want her to be dynamic. We want her to be able to score inside, we want to be able to create space for her to have more one-on-one finishes inside, and to not have to feel like she's got to play in a crowd."

The coach added:

"We want to put the ball in her hands on the perimeter and allow her to facilitate and create off of the dribble as well."

In her rookie campaign, Angel Reese did her damage mostly in the paint on a 39.1% shooting clip.

To further develop her game, Reese suited up for the inaugural season of the Unrivaled Basketball League. She was a key piece for Rose Basketball Club, helping them win the title while being named the league's Defensive Player of the Year.

Reese is now looking to help the Sky in bouncing back after missing the playoffs for the first time in six years last season.
