Chicago Sky and Angel Reese ended the 2025 season on a sour note as the team’s star player said she “might have to move in a different direction and do what’s best for me” if the team doesn’t improve her vision.

Reese was suspended by the team for her “harmful” comments and then missed the last three games of the season with what the team called a back injury, causing speculation that the relationship was broken.

But Sky General Manager Jeff Pagliocca said Reese will be on the team “until I hear differently.”

“That’s the direction we want to move is that she’s on the schedule,” he told journalists earlier this week.

“Angel is an increasing young talent in this league that has had two very, very good seasons here in Chicago,” Pagliocca said Friday. “Obviously we went through what we did. I feel like we closed the chapter about it. She talked to her teammates, she spoke publicly. We went on as a team. She’s a special player. And I have good conversations with Angel Daily, with her team daily. They are constant and they are productive.”

Reese demanded the team get better players and said it was a “non -negotiation” for her.

“I am not content with the same s — we did this year,” Reese told Chicago Tribune. “We’ve got to get good players. We’ve got to get good players. It’s a non -negotiation for me.”
