Tests await teams every season. It didn’t take long for the Sky to be hit with their first: a pair of injuries. 

Center Li Yueru arrived in Chicago with an undisclosed lower-extremity injury and was put on a full-season contract suspension on May 18. Newly arrived forward Isabelle Harrison, a projected starter, was ruled out indefinitely this week after surgery to repair her left meniscus.
