Sky coach Tyler Marsh said Van Lith is off to a strong start and is benefitting from 14-year veteran Courtney Vandersloot, who started Friday. Vandersloot is a five-time All-Star with two championships.

Angel Reese turned a lot of heads once again after she rocked the perfect return-to-school outfit for the Chicago Sky's preseason game against the Brazil women's national team at LSU's campus in Baton Rouge. However, she was not the only one to attract attention with her look.

While Reese was the center of attention Friday night, she wasn't the only player who suited up for Mulkey's Tigers on the Sky roster. Hailey Van Lith, who played the 2023-24 season at LSU, was recently drafted by the Sky. Van Lith put together a successful season at TCU before making the leap to the WNBA.
