“Oh, my gosh!” Sykes said. “I mean, for her to get the block, I was like: ‘Yes! Are you okay?’ We really celebrated that one where she got doubled and passed it to me. I’m just so happy to see her back on the court, man. She’s been pushing, and she’s a young one. So that was a journey for her. And she’s still on her journey of coming back.Added Austin: “I couldn’t believe that opportunity [for the block] was coming.
The Sky’s biggest lead was two points, and that came in the first quarter. Kahleah Copper, the 2021 Finals MVP, struggled with foul trouble. She finished with a team-high 17 points but had just six in the first three quarters. All five Sky starters scored in double figures, but Chicago got just seven points from its bench.
