Angel Reese's injury won't derail Chicago Sky's playoff goals | On Her Turf | NBC Sports

I was so shocked 😲 😯. I understood and her health come first i know next season is about to be greatness for Angel. 👌💪🙏🙏💯💯

[leiannb.wrytes]

Izzy just hasn’t been consistent this season is all. I’m glad she had such a good game last night. The team, overall, has been lackluster performance wise with Reese on the bench. That’s why she has one of the greatest +/- of any player in the league. I’m so excited for the Sky though!! They looked great last night. (Granted it was the worst team in the league right now, still.)

Caitlin Clark is making everyone forget about Angel Reese. And Angel Reese is making everyone forget about Angel Reese by quitting the season early.

Haters kiss it!!!! ANGEL REESE winning!!!! Kick rocks losers!!!! Funny how you people such annoying fans can’t keep Angel name out of your mouth!!!!😂😂

[celebritykidsareus]

No she was not the first to announce the injury. Her team put it out one hour before she made her statement.

[ernestbalthazar]

Carmela will hold it down and they will make the playoffs

[marktaylor]

She is a great player but she needs to learn not to listent to social media, a good idea for everyone not just the famous.

"derail" shoot the sky without AR will produce a cohesive team with an offence that niw can actually be competitive

[davidmathewson]

The Sky probably lose by 35 points instead of 31 points if Reese played. The Sky are bad with or without Reese. The Sky had just lost 7 games in a row with Reese in the lineup and were 9 games below .500 when she quit the team. The team is 1-1 without Reese. Obviously Reese is not a game changer.

Totally emotional for me im so sick ma so sick 😢❤❤❤🎉

[enemroy]

Now the Sky can play team ball and focus on winning instead of records.

[davemathewson]

The Sky are a funner team to watch without seeing bricks flung at the basket by Reese aka "Barbie Bricks". The Sky is also a better team without Reese because the team can more fully utilize its best big, Cardoso.

[davidmathewson]

The Sky is a better team without Angel Reese.

😂How can you say that she's out for the season when they're not saying the seriousness of the injury 🤔🤔. Any true athlete will want to still try and play at all costs even if it means taping it up. If she just tweaked her wrist you wouldn't say that you're done for the season😂. She has a wrist brace on not a cast. Plus, why the heck wouldn't the team announce her being done for the year? 😂. I beginning to realize why people haven't been watching the WNBA.

[Somm_RJ]

By large, people are criticizing her overall skills, not her rebounding skills. You can’t put those 2 things together.

[Bluzmn]

They will likely play better with Cardoso having all those minutes.

[highsouth]

She Is such a liar "God's plan Not mine"""" when your given the chance to still play and you Don't!! Don't bring God and lie on God when it is in FACT you're plan!!

[Steve-kref]

"Angel Reese's injury won't derail Chicago Sky's playoff goals "?? Yes, we agree, lol

[JaimeBocanegra-rghd]

It's all B's she's doing that cuz she knows that's her excuse why she wasn't gonna win rookie of year against Caitlyn Clark she hit a three with an injury cmon she can hardly shoot injury would of made that impossible. This is just tactics

[Qwerty-yd]

When the tumor was gone, the team played well....
