Reese's chase down of Clark to mimic her "You Can't See Me" celebration in the final moments of the game pitted the two young stars against each other. Now, both of these young talents have rabid fanbases that are intensely divided. While the two seem to have no issues with each other, the media enjoys painting a different story.

For Reese, the disappointment of landing in ninth place was compounded by the fact she missed Chicago's final six games because of a wrist injury. The Sky went 1-5 during that stretch, and their 89-58 blowout at the hands of Washington was particularly costly.

The Sky finished 10th in the WNBA with a 13-27 record last season and missed the playoffs for the first time since 2018. The disappointing results were despite getting significant contributions from Reese and fellow rookie Kamilla Cardoso. The two young stars are back, and the team made major roster changes to give them some help.

Out of halftime, Van Lith scored five, Ariel Atkins added four, and Rebecca Allen chipped in three to keep the Sky close, despite a 13-point explosion from Collier for the Lynx. Chicago trailed by just three heading into the fourth.

Once her photos from the Met Gala hit the internet, WNBA legend Lisa Leslie gave Reese a new nickname. The roots of Leslie's nickname for Reese come from the Chicago Sky stars original nickname from her college days.
