A year of changes for the Chicago Sky, from players to management, hasn't dampened their playoff hopes as the regular season enters its final month. Despite the transformations, the Sky find themselves well-positioned in the intense race for a WNBA playoff spot.
With 12 games remaining in the current season, the Chicago Sky currently hold the eighth and final playoff spot. Sporting a record of 12 wins and 16 losses, they maintain a game and a half lead over the Sparks, their closest competitors for the coveted last spot. As they gear up for their upcoming match against the Liberty in Brooklyn, the Sky are within striking distance of an even higher ranking.
