INDIANAPOLIS -- Chicago Sky star Angel Reese will be suspended for the first half of the team's game Sunday against the Las Vegas Aces for what the organization called "statements detrimental to the team," the Sky announced Friday.

"The Chicago Sky values the safety, respect, and well-being of every player," the team said in a prepared statement. "We are committed to accountability so our players can stay focused on playing basketball. This matter has been handled and resolved internally, and we are moving forward as a team."

Sky coach Tyler Marsh said before Friday's game against the Indiana Fever that the first-half suspension was an "organizational decision" that came from the "top down."

"Just going to handle it internally, and that's kind of what it's been," Marsh said.
