The Chicago Sky is slipping further into darkness with each passing game. Squaring off against the Phoenix Mercury, the Sky once again faltered. With a 67-83 loss, the Chicago-based side is now at number 12 on the table. And after 28 games, their win-loss record looks dismal with 7-21. Yet, all of these got overlooked as Angel Reese, once again, went viral.
Chi-Town Barbie has been a talking point this season. With some significant improvements to her game, Reese has been the only silver lining for the Sky. Unfortunately, with a back injury, the 23-year-old had to sit out. But that did not prevent her from attracting the limelight.
Angel Reese Hints At Peace With Kahleah Cooper
Following the game, both the team exchanged pleasantries. And among them, Angel Reese and Kahleah Copper too, hugged each other. Now, apparently, there shouldn’t have been anything fancy. But considering the past both the players have, the sudden showcase of sisterhood seemed quite odd.

Back in June this year, Mercury had yet another dominant win over the Sky. In fact, the 107-86 victory became Mercury’s highest offensive points for the season. However, right after the game, it was Kahleah Copper who ignited a fire. Taking a cue from Reese’s previous phrase, Copper wrote on social media, “DUBS IN THE MF CHATTTT.”
Now, this was a reference to an overly viral statement from Reese. Winning a game earlier, the 23-year-old celebrated with “DUBS IN THE CHAT! THANK YAAAA!” on social media. Prior to her back injury, this soon became her signature catchphrase, along with the ‘Mebounds’ slogan. Meanwhile, watching Reese hug Copper, fans could not keep calm.
