The Chicago Sky are promoting a Barbie theme night when they host the Indiana Fever on Friday, Aug. 30.

It will be fitting for the Sky to host the first Barbie themed night in the WNBA as the team's star rookie Angel Reese is known for being nicknamed a Barbie throughout her basketball career. During her collegiate career at LSU, she was known as the "Bayou Barbie." Now, in Chicago, fans refer to her as the "Chi-Barbie" or the "Double-Double Barbie" after she logged 15 double-doubles in a row, which is the WNBA record.
