The skidding Chicago Sky have some much-needed reinforcement on the way. Forward Candace Parker is expected to return to the court after missing all but one game with an ankle injury, head coach James Wade said Tuesday.
“We feel like she will [play Wednesday]," Wade told reporters on a Zoom call. "She was able to practice today and she looked pretty good. Of course, there’s a lot of timing and rhythm things that will take time. But she’s Candace Parker.”
The Wednesday game against the Indiana Fever would be Parker's hometown debut at Chicago's Wintrust Arena after joining the team in free agency.
