Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese recently sat down for an interview with Steve Greenberg of the Chicago Sun-Times, and her responses have raised concerns about her mental well-being during her first WNBA season.

Reese seemed reluctant to engage in the conversation, as Greenberg noted that she was only providing short, dismissive answers.

In the interview, Reese expressed her distrust of the media: “I know how y’all like to twist my words, so I’m just keeping it short and sweet. I can’t trust any of y’all.

So I’m just letting you know – short and sweet.” This sentiment reflects her apprehension towards the media and the potential misrepresentation of her words.

Greenberg also spoke with Chicago Sky head coach Teresa Weatherspoon about Reese’s demeanor. Weatherspoon acknowledged the challenges that Reese may be facing: “I think sometimes we fail to realize what the athlete might think…it’s almost like every time she speaks, there’s something wrong with what she says.

There’s something wrong with what she does.” Weatherspoon’s comments shed light on the pressure and scrutiny that Reese may be experiencing as a rookie in the WNBA.

Despite the concerns raised by Reese’s interview, Weatherspoon reassured that Reese is doing fine, emphasizing: “She’s fine. She’s going to be fine. I mean, she’s fine.“
