Chicago Sky release powerful statement on ‘racial’ incident between Fever fan and Angel Reese

On Sunday, the WNBA revealed that they were investigating an incident that allegedly occurred between a fan and Chicago Sky power forward Angel Reese during Saturday’s game against the Indiana Fever. The Sky and Fever were playing an intense game that ended in a 93-58 blowout by Indiana at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Per Annie Costabile of Front Office Sports, the incident was not in reaction to the drama on a flagrant foul between Fever point guard Caitlin Clark and Reese. The comment was of a “racial” concern.
“Sources with knowledge of the situation say this statement is in response to allegations of racial comments directed at Angel Reese by fan(s) in the crowd,” Costabile posted on X. “It is not in response to the take foul that was upgraded to a flagrant 1.”
The Chicago Sky released a statement
On Sunday night, The Sky’s President and CEO, Adam Fox, released a statement on the team’s X account regarding the WNBA investigation into the racial incident. Chicago sent a powerful statement defending Reese and her Sky teammates in order to create a safe place for female athletes.
“We welcome the WNBA’s investigation of allegations of fan misconduct during our first game of the season,” Fox wrote. “We will do everything in our power to protect Chicago Sky players, and we encourage the league to continue taking meaningful steps to create a safe environment for all WNBA players.”

The Sky warned fans before the season that hateful comments of any kind would be grounds for blocking on social media channels. Unfortunately, in this situation, a person felt emboldened to say it at a game.
