The Chicago Sky dropped to 7-14 during the 2025 WNBA season after Monday evening's loss to the 19-4 Minnesota Lynx. This snapped the Sky's two-game winning streak and moved them into a tie for 10th place in the league standings with the Los Angeles Sparks.
Chicago was not able to overcome a 29-point, 5-assist, 3-rebound performance from MVP frontrunner Napheesa Collier. All-Star guard Courtney Williams also chipped in 18 points, eight rebounds, seven assists and four steals for the Lynx in the win.
Second-year forward Angel Reese, who was named to her second WNBA All-Star team last week, led the way for Chicago in the loss. She paced the Sky with 22 points on 9-for-14 shooting and 10 rebounds, as well as three assists and a block.
This was Reese's ninth-straight game with a double-double, and her 15th such performance of the 2025 season. She has also scored 15 or more points in eight consecutive contests.
