Angel Reese sends blunt message about life with Dream after blockbuster Sky trade

The blockbuster trade that sent Reese from the Chicago Sky to the Atlanta Dream in April immediately changed expectations around both franchises. Chicago moved on from one of the league’s fastest-rising stars after just two seasons, while Atlanta aggressively pushed its chips toward contending in the Eastern Conference. Atlanta opened the 2026 season with a 4-1 record, tied for the best mark in the WNBA entering Memorial Day week.
