Key Storylines
- The Storm are playing for WNBA playoff seeding. They enter Saturday in seventh place in the standings and need to keep winning to avoid falling into eighth place by the end of Saturday night’s games across the league.
- The Sky are led by one of the top rebounders in the WNBA in Angel Reese. She is a consistent double-double threat. The Sky’s 9-29 record shows they struggle on both ends of the floor. But Reese has been one of the league’s most productive players on the glass and has scored effectively as well.
- The Chicago Sky have lost three games in a row coming into this contest. They lost to the Connecticut Sun, Las Vegas Aces, and Phoenix Mercury during that stretch despite putting up a valiant fight in their loss to Phoenix.

Final Thoughts
The Chicago Sky have not shown a ton of heart late in the regular season this year. They should fold once again in this contest against a Storm team that is desperate to keep winning games. I’ll lay the points with the Storm here, as Chicago doesn’t have enough around Angel Reese to stay competitive on the road in this spot.
