Angel Reese returned to Chicago for her first WNBA action since being traded from the Sky to the Atlanta Dream.
Like most of the Dreamâs starters, Reese played only the first half of Wednesdayâs preseason game. She recorded 8 points, 7 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 assists in a 87-78 victory over the team that drafted her seventh overall out of LSU in 2024.
She shot only 2-of-7 from the field and 4-of-8 from the free-throw line. But she led the Dream in plus-minus with a plus-14 and didnât commit a single turnover despite frequently bringing the ball up the court.
The Dream picked up where they left off last season, during which they shattered their single-season wins record and ranked tied for second in the league in 3-pointers made per game (9.6). Atlanta netted five triples in the first half against a Sky squad thatâs far from full strength at the moment. Three of those 3s came from three-time All-Star Rhyne Howard. But the Dream also balanced their long-range barrage with a drive to reach the free-throw line.
Thatâs where Reese put the finishing touches on the teamâs 16-0 second-quarter run that put Atlanta up 20 points, 43-23.
The Dream were in the driverâs seat on the road during their first preseason game after a head-turning offseason. In addition to dealing for Reese, Atlanta re-signed its five core players: Howard, fellow three-time All-Star guard Allisha Gray, two-time WNBA steals leader , four-time All-Star forward and .
In her return, Angel Reese recorded 8 points, 7 rebounds, 3 steals, and 2 assists.

Jones and Hillmon werenât available for Wednesdayâs exhibition. And the Dream began the second half with a new-look starting five, with only Sika Kone carrying over from the one that was on the floor for tip-off.
The Sky, who buckled down to trim their deficit to 13 before intermission, initially continued to roll with their starters.
That dichotomy started to make things interesting, as Chicago quickly built some momentum, in part inspired by a Rachel Banham 3, that its bench carried on.
Fighting to make the roster, former Louisville guard Sydney Taylor poured in 12 third-quarter points. Fellow rookie Gabriela Jaquez, a national champion guard out of UCLA whom the Sky selected No. 5 overall in this yearâs draft, completed an and-1 made possible by her cutting, catching and scoring.
Chicago made it a single-digit game in the quarter, entering the fourth trailing 64-58.
Taylorâs takeover kept going in the final frame. Not only did she polish off her 23-point outing, but she showcased some versatility, too.
Nearly midway through the quarter, she she led the break, sending a pass to second-year guard Hailey Van Lith, who dished one more to set up rookie Tonie Morgan for a triple. The former Kentucky standoutâs corner 3 made it a 73-69 game.
Atlanta never relinquished its lead, though. The Dream kept a grip on their advantage, picking up a win in their first preseason game of the year.
