Angel Reese powers Atlanta Dream past Chicago Sky in comeback victory

Two-time All-Star Angel Reese made her first return to Wintrust Arena since being traded to the Atlanta Dream, drawing attention both for her on‑court performance and her distinctive pre‑game outfit. While fans offered limited fanfare, the Dream defeated the Chicago Sky 82‑75. Reese recorded a double‑double with 17 points, 17 rebounds, four assists and a team‑high plus‑18 rating, also hitting her second three‑pointer of the year and making a key play that secured the win.

The victory kept the Dream in contention for the Eastern Conference and the Commissioner’s Cup, a tournament offering a $500,000 prize. Reese, who averages 13.3 points and a league‑best 11.7 rebounds per game, said, "Just finding my flow, finding where I fit in." The Dream now prepares for a matchup against unbeaten New York Liberty in the next round of the Cup.

Reese’s return also generated social‑media buzz over her plaid blazer dress and platform shoes, sparking mixed reactions from fans and commentators.
