NBA 2K26 cover star Angel Reese gets shirt drop treatment at Sky vs. Lynx game

The Chicago Sky are going all in, not just on the court, but in the crowd.

The Sky face off today against the league-leading Minnesota Lynx; they’ll need every ounce of energy they can muster. Minnesota sits atop the western conference with only three losses all season, while Chicago continues to fight for consistency and momentum.

But their last meeting, just this past Sunday, proved the Sky are up for the challenge. Chicago kept it tight in a five-point loss to the Lynx, with Angel Reese shining once again. The forward posted a 16-point, 17-rebound double-double, reinforcing her case as one of the league’s brightest young stars.

Now, Reese is not just dominating on the court; she’s front and center on the cover of NBA 2K26 WNBA Edition, rocking her signature shoe both in the game and in real life. Chicago is celebrating in a big way.

It’s the kind of moment few players ever experience and even fewer this early in their careers. Reese will get to look out at an entire crowd rocking her image. If motivation was ever needed, this might be the spark to push the Sky past the WNBA’s top squad.
