Angel Reese Put on Blast As Isis Young Delivers Spirited Message

Forward Angel Reese was at the epicenter of the Chicago Sky's tumultuous season, which unfolded with more uncertainties than resolutions. Emerging as the face of the franchise, the standout player achieved an impressive double-double average in her inaugural season yet faced significant criticism. After enduring weeks of public tension with the organization, her decision to skip the team's voluntary exit interview has ignited speculation regarding her future in Chicago. While Courtney Vandersloot and Ariel Atkins also opted out of the session with veterans, it was Reese’s absence that drew the most attention. The Chicago Sky concluded the season with one of the league’s least favorable records, and Reese had previously voiced her dissatisfaction with the team's trajectory and roster. Her late-season suspension for comments deemed “detrimental” showcased the growing rift between her and the organization. As she bypassed the exit interview, trade rumors intensified. Young remarked, “If you’re a professional and want us to treat you like one, do the exit interview.”
