Angel Reese, WNBA Rookie of the Year candidate, announces season-ending injury

Angel Reese's rookie year has come to an end, as the Chicago Sky forward announced Saturday she had suffered a season-ending injury. Reese injured her wrist in the Sky's 92-78 victory over the Los Angeles Sparks on Friday, in which she recorded another one of her signature double-doubles.

The Sparks also confirmed the severity of the injury, saying in a statement that "Reese has been ruled out for the rest of the 2024 season with a wrist injury."

In a social media post, Reese wrote that "through it all, I have showed that I belong in this league even when no one else believed. I'm filled with emotions right now that I have a season ending injury, but also filled with so much gratitude for what is next."
