Angel Reese Turns Heads With Announcement on Wednesday

The Chicago Sky continue to ride the success of Angel Reese.  While Chicago struggled for much of the season, Reese has been a bright spot for first-year head coach Tyler Marsh and his staff.  The Sky recently played the Washington Mystics, where they fell 79-72. Reese was named the Chicago Sky’s “Player of the Game” for the matchup, posting 17 points, 10 rebounds and five assists.  As she continues to improve on the court, Reese also made an impact outside of the white lines.

On Wednesday, Reese announced that she collaborated with Cash App to design a new court in Chicago, home of the Chicago Sky.  “New court in Chicago,” Reese said. “So blessed to be able to do this in a second city that I can now call HOME.”  Reese shared the news with over 4.9 million followers on social media.  “Come play,” posted Angel Reese in collaboration with Cash App.”📍Angel’s Court Oakwood Beach Chicago, Illinois.”
