Chicago Sky star Angel Reese expressed her excitement over how the team have creatively revealed their schedule for the upcoming 2025 season of the WNBA.
The WNBA recently dumped a huge chunk of information to its fans, revealing not just the schedule for the upcoming season, but also thrilling rivalries and matchups to watch out for. With these things considered, the social media team of Chicago Sky did not fail to deliver when it comes to having their own way of announcing their schedule.
Over at the team’s official X account, Chicago Sky made a witty video following the “suspect” trend on TikTok, giving their opponent teams their own “suspect” description.
To the Indiana Fever, where the Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark rivalry would once again be revisited, they had to say: “Suspect’s fans are always @-ing us in the comments.”
To the New York Liberty, they said: “Suspect won the championship but is still second-best in pizza.”
They also threw a fun shade towards the Las Vegas Aces and reigning MVP A’Ja Wilson: “Suspect almost had a three-peat but it wasn’t in the cards.”
To the Seattle Storm, they only had one thing to say: “Suspect just got a lot going on right now.”
Most fans found the creativity of the video funny and witty, that even fans of the teams that were trolled by the post had a laugh about it as well.
Of course, Sky’s very own Angel Reese did not let the chance to express herself pass by.
“Proud of our PR team,” she said. “We ate that up.”
To that, fans had a mix of reaction to Reese’s lauding of the Sky’s PR team, with some even joking that they thought it was her idea all along.
