Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese will not play in Wednesday afternoon's game against the Atlanta Dream, the team announced.

The Sky said Reese has a leg injury, but didn't designate which leg is injured or how she was injured. Sky head coach Tyler Marsh said Reese will sit out for "precautionary" reasons. Reese scored 22 points and 10 rebounds in her last game against the Minnesota Lynx

Reese is scheduled to play for Team Napheesa Collier in the WNBA All-Star Game on Saturday against Team Caitlin Clark in Indianapolis. Clark's availability for the game is also in question following a right groin injury late in Tuesday's game against the Connecticut Sun.

Reese is averaging 14 points, a WNBA-leading 12.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.6 steals per game this season, shooting 45% from the field for Chicago (7-14).
