If the Chicago Sky are to get back on a winning track tomorrow, they’ll have to do it without superstar Angel Reese.

Per Sky team reporter Karli Bell, Chicago has already ruled out Angel Reese and All-Star guard Ariel Atkins for Wednesday’s game against the Atlanta Dream (12:00 p.m. EST) due to leg injuries.

Exact details of Reese’s injury, such as its severity and when she suffered it, are unclear at this time. She had one of the best performances of her young career in yesterday’s 91-78 loss to the league-best Minnesota Lynx, recording another double-double (22 points and 10 rebounds).

Reese played all but three minutes of yesterday’s game.

The slumping Sky had won two in a row before Monday’s frustrating loss to Minnesota. At 7-14, they’re three games behind the Golden State Valkyries (10-11) for the league’s final playoff spot.

 

Now, Chicago must find a way to get past the 12-9 Dream (they hold the No. 5 seed) without Angel Reese. The Sky lost the first two regular-season meetings to Atlanta, on June 13 and June 22.

Wednesday’s game is Chicago’s final contest before they head into the All-Star break. After that, they’ll resume action the a road game against the Lynx on the 22nd (8:00 p.m. EST), followed by a home tilt with the Seattle Storm two days later.

The 23-year-old Angel Reese is averaging 14 points, 12.6 rebounds and 3.8 assists per contest over 21 games.

 

Fearne Cotton has broken her silence on split from husband Jesse Wood in her first TV interview since the breakup.

Joining Lorraine Kelly on Monday’s episode of the ITV show, the TV presenter, 43, also gave an health update after having two tumours removed from jaw.

Fearne announced her split from Jesse, the son of Rolling Stones bass guitarist Ronnie Wood, in December after 10 years of marriage.

She has since made swipes at Jesse and moved on with TV director Elliot Hegarty, with the pair having been seen kissing during a recent night out.

Fearne has had a difficult few months after undergoing surgery to remove two benign tumours from her jawline, just days before her split with Jesse emerged.

She told host Lorraine: ‘It’s all very amicable and kids are doing great. I am in a very good place.’place.’

Discussing her recent surgery, she added: ‘I feel very grateful to have completely recovered.

‘I feel really good. I have a lot of people reaching out who have had the same thing.’

Davina McCall, 56, announced in November she’d been diagnosed with a colloid cyst, a rare type of benign brain tumour, and has supported Fearne.

She continued: ‘Everyone needs a Davina. She’s been amazing, weird that we had the same health thing going on at the same time. She’s so calming and we speak every day. She is just the best

It comes after Fearne has seemingly made another thinly-veiled dig at her ex-husband as she gushed that she is the happiest she’s ever been in a positive update.

Speaking to Scott Mills on his BBC Radio 2 breakfast show, Fearne gushed that she is ‘really happy’ and is ‘springing out of bed in the morning ready for life’.

Scott, who has known Fearne for 25 years, said he has never seen her ‘more positive or happier’, prompting Fearne to agree and reply: ‘Yeah I feel great!’
