Reese spoke highly of her relationship with Mulkey and said she appreciated that her coach did not tell the world where she was during her time off.

Outsiders “made assumptions about what was going on," Reese said, but Mulkey "protected my brand."

"And a lot of people didn’t think she protected me," Reese said. "She protected me in the best the way she could, and I always will respect that from her."

Reese said she felt her attitude was "contagious to other people" at the time.

"I wasn't in a good place, like within myself, and I didn't want that to become a cancer in the locker room," Reese said.


Wow, shocking that's how AR would explain it away. Lol. Mulkey herself said Reese was the source of "locker room issues" as the cause for her disappearance. It's not some big secret, it already happened again when Angel threw her Chicago Sky teammates under the bus.

While also saying she's never had a team where she didn't have to deal with issues, stated she's going to protect Reese and her players as they're like family. Again, if she was truly a cancer, she wouldn't have been back.

Also, Chicago's front office is ***. She could have gone about it better, but she was not wrong by saying "If they want to compete they need better players." And now look at them. They're building around Courtney Vandersloot.

How many times have those issues led to her removing one of her starters from team activities for 4 games? Lol.

Will be fun to watch the drama she creates in Atlanta when she gets pi**ed that Rhyne Howard and Allisha Gray insist on shooting the ball so much, and at Greiner for stealing so many of her rebounds. Lol.

What roster? It was her, cardosa, and a van slooten that is a shadow of herself. Chicago is a dumpster fire. She said if they wanted to compete they need more talent (not wrong) and after it all blew up she demanded a trade.
She did call out the owners for not spending money.

To Atlanta.....Or she’s a chemistry killer and it all goes south. A worthy gamble imo.


Angel Reese moving on to destroy another WNBA franchise?

She made it public that she she had to address mental health issues. It wasn't because she was a "team cancer."

Funny, Lauren Betts left the team halfway through her sophomore year, people are now calling her a champion for mental health. Reese does the same thing against 4 mid major non-cons and she's a "team cancer."

The team also didn't fail because of Reese. She led the team in points and rebounds and had a better shooting percentage than Morrow and HVL (the better players that were brought onto the roster).
