The Chicago Sky (7-17) are preparing to host the Indiana Fever (13-12) in their next WNBA game, with the franchises clashing on Sunday afternoon. The Fever are expected to be without Caitlin Clark and will face a motivated Angel Reese and Sky, who will be looking to put on a strong performance.
The Sky are coming off a one-sided 95-57 loss at the hands of the Seattle Storm. Reese was sidelined for that loss with a back injury. While she’s still questionable for Sunday’s game, the Sky have made an exciting announcement relating to Reese for the Fever game.
The franchise will be going through with its ‘Barbie Game Day’ promotion, as revealed on X. The franchise is encouraging fans to wear pink to the arena and used Reese for the promotion of the event despite her current injury status. Reese is also known as the “Bayou Barbie.”
“Turning United Center pink on Sunday. Pop out in your best pink fit.”
