The Chicago Sky secured their second win in three days over the Dallas Wings, taking a 94-83 victory on Saturday night in Arlington. Ariel Atkins led the charge for Chicago with 26 points, while Angel Reese added points and nine rebounds, helping the Sky capitalize on a shorthanded Dallas squad.
Dallas was without rookie sensation Paige Bueckers, who entered the league’s concussion protocol after the Wings’ previous loss to Chicago. In her absence, NaLyssa Smith stepped up, delivering her first 20-point game of the season, but it wasn’t enough to halt Dallas’s slide—this marks their sixth loss in seven games.
Courtney Vandersloot contributed points, seven rebounds, and seven assists for Chicago, which shot just 39% from the field but dominated from the free-throw line, converting 26 of 30 attempts. The Sky also outpaced the Wings from beyond the arc, sinking eight threes to Dallas’s four.
Despite a competitive first half, the Wings faltered in the fourth quarter, allowing Chicago to pull away. Dallas will look to regroup as they face the Seattle Storm next, while the Sky enjoy a week off before hosting the Indiana Fever.
