CHICAGO -- Angel Reese was suspended by the Chicago Sky for the first half of the team's game against Las Vegas on Sunday for comments she made that were "detrimental to the team."
The team announced the suspension Friday. Reese already is missing the team's game Friday night against Indiana because of a mandatory one-game suspension by the WNBA for picking up her eighth technical foul of the season.
"The Chicago Sky values the safety, respect, and well-being of every player. We are committed to accountability so our players can stay focused on playing basketball," the team said in a statement.
