Chicago Sky head coach admits Angel Reese mistake

The Chicago Sky broke a WNBA record for having the worst point discrepancy through two games at -60.
The Sky’s 29.1% shooting was an issue for Chicago in their 93-58 loss to the Indiana Fever on Saturday. Poor offense and defense caused a 99-74 defeat to the New York Liberty during Thursday night’s home opener in front of 9,025 fans at Wintrust Arena.
Second-year star Angel Reese had a nightmare game on offense. She sent 0-for-8 shooting, with her only two points coming on a pair of free throws. The point forward also committed five turnovers.
Chicago Sky coach Tyler Marsh made a mistake
Reese went 0-of-5 shooting in the first quarter, but only managed three more shots the rest of the game. During his press conference postgame, Sky head coach Tyler Marsh admitted he needed to do a better job facilitating his bigs like Reese and Cardoso.
“I’ve got to be better at getting the ball into our post players,” Marsh said via CHGO Sky.

Cardoso finished 3-of-8 shooting for 6 points.
Angel Reese is rushing her shots
The Sky shot poorly against the defending WNBA champs, making 36.2% of their field goals. Marsh sounded like a broken record postgame, saying he doesn’t believe the team will have so many misses during games this season.
He believed part of Reese’s problem on Thursday was that she rushed her attempts.
“Some of (her shots) were rushed,” Marsh said via Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times. “That was really it. Angel knows that we have confidence in her. . . . We have constant belief in all our players to make those. It’s not going to be often that we have a ton of misses like this.”
Reese is shooting 22.7% through the first two games of the season. More troubling, she’s made only 37.5% of her free throws. While she’s struggling from the field, Reese is gaining big numbers in rebounding, averaging 14.5 per game, though many are from her own misses.
For the Sky, Reese’s offense and the inefficiency of the offense as a whole is unsustainable, they’re not playing competitive basketball.
