The Chicago Sky have had a difficult 2025 season, falling to 5-12 with an 80-75 loss to the Minnesota Lynx on Sunday night. That loss was particularly frustrating as they led 24-10 after the first quarter, but then watched as the league's top team steadily closed that gap, taking the lead early in the fourth quarter and never giving it back.

The Chicago Sky, who entered Sunday having won two of their last three games, played one of their strongest contests of the season against the Minnesota Lynx — despite ultimately falling short, 80-75.

To Reese's point, Sunday's matchup between Chicago and Minnesota was very light on calls until players spoke up about it. At one juncture, the Sky only had one free throw well into the second half, and the Lynx had just six attempts. (That's not a typo.)
