Chicago Sky Player Earns Praise After Connecticut Sun Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Chicago Sky were hoping to take a step toward becoming competitive this season. But Angel Reese's back injury has been one of a number of issues that have held them back so far this year.

The Chicago Sky only had eight players available in the second half, with Angel Reese (back) missing her sixth straight game.

Leïla Lacan had a team-high 17 points for the Connecticut Sun and dished out five assists in a nine-point win over the Chicago Sky on Wednesday.
