In what may become a turning point for the Chicago Sky's rollercoaster season, Rebecca Allen's WNBA brilliance on Wednesday night raised a crucial question: who's the true leader of this team? While rookie sensation Angel Reese notched another double-double with 15 points and 11 rebounds, it was Allen's 27-point outburst off the bench that helped the Sky secure an 87–76 win over the Dallas Wings, possibly changing the narrative in the Windy City.
Allen, who finished just one point shy of her career high, torched the Wings on 9-of-13 shooting, including a lethal 5-for-7 from beyond the arc. The Sky, now 6–13, completed a season sweep of Dallas, reports Deadspin. This reminded the league that leadership doesn't always come from the loudest storylines, but sometimes from the most efficient stat lines.
