Angel Reese’s turbulent final stretch of the 2025 WNBA season has been influenced by both on-court absence and off-court controversy. The 23-year-old forward, averaging 14.7 points, a league-best 12.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.5 steals in 30 games, was suspended for the first half of the Sky’s September 7 game against the Las Vegas Aces for “statements detrimental to the team.”<\/p>

Those comments, made in an interview with the Chicago Tribune<\/a>, criticized the roster’s formation and hinted she might leave if the franchise failed to add supporting talent. Angel Reese was expected to return after halftime, but a flare-up of a back injury, the same issue that sidelined her for 10 games earlier in the season, kept her out for the remainder of the contest.<\/p>

Head coach Tyler Marsh confirmed that Angel Reese reported the injury before tip-off and that her status would be evaluated “day by day.” With Chicago already eliminated from playoff contention at 10-33, the organisation faces a decision on whether to shut her down for the final game to avoid aggravating the problem.<\/p>

This would mark the second straight year she ended a season early due to injury, after missing the last six games of 2024 with a wrist issue. The combination of disciplinary action, injury management, and a lost season has placed her relationship with the franchise under intense pressure.<\/p>

The question now is whether Reese’s time in Chicago Sky is nearing its end. Her public frustration with the Sky’s lack of progress, two consecutive seasons without a playoff berth, has been met with mixed reactions internally.<\/p>

While she later apologized and claimed her remarks were taken out of context, the suspension signalled that the front office viewed her comments as crossing a line. An anonymous WNBA executive went as far as to call Chicago “the worst-run organization in the league” and suggested Reese should “get the hell out of there” if the team’s direction doesn’t change.<\/p>

From a basketball standpoint, Angel Reese’s value is undeniable. She has improved her field goal percentage from 39.1% as a rookie to 45.8% this season. She also maintained her dominance on the boards, and set a record for most double-doubles in a player’s first two seasons (46).<\/p>

But her prime years are beginning now, and patience for a slow rebuild is limited. If the Chicago Sky<\/a> cannot convince her that they will surround her with championship-caliber talent, the likelihood of a trade request, or the team initiating talks themselves, will grow.<\/p>

Potential Destinations if Angel Reese Leaves Chicago<\/h2>

Should Angel Reese become available, several franchises could be quick to pursue her. The Dallas Wings are a logical suitor, with the potential to pair her with Paige Bueckers and Arike Ogunbowale. Dallas, likely to hold a top draft pick in 2026, could offer Chicago a package built around that selection and young assets. Reese’s rebounding and interior presence would address a clear need for the Wings. Also, while giving her a backcourt partner capable of maximizing her offensive efficiency.<\/p>

The Seattle Storm present another interesting option. With veterans Skylar Diggins and Nneka Ogwumike approaching free agency, Seattle could pivot to a younger core built around Dominique Malonga, Ezi Magbegor, and Reese.<\/p>

The Storm’s championship pedigree and potential high draft pick could form the basis of a competitive offer. For Angel Reese, Seattle offers a stable, winning culture, something she has openly wanted.<\/p>

The Phoenix Mercury, despite stylistic differences, are also a player in the market. Their current core of Alyssa Thomas, Kahleah Copper, and Satou Sabally could be strengthened by Reese’s rebounding and defensive versatility.<\/p>

Phoenix’s “win now” approach, large market, and state-of-the-art facilities would tick many of Reese’s boxes. While the Mercury may need to part with shooters or future picks to make a deal work, their history of aggressive moves suggests they would explore it.<\/p>\n
