"Chicago had one of the most confusing offseasons in recent memory and it got even stranger in the week before the season when it released Van Lith and added Cloud. The Sky revamped their identity by trading Reese and adding Diggins and a young player to build around in Jackson. But they also traded a first-rounder for Jacy Sheldon and another for protection in the expansion draft only to let players go anyway."

The offseason featured major roster turnover, including the addition of Rickea Jackson, Jacy Sheldon, Skylar Diggins, Azura Stevens, and Natasha Cloud. Angel Reese, Ariel Atkins, Kia Nurse, and Hailey Van Lith were moved out. The week before the season included releasing Van Lith and adding Cloud. The team traded Reese and brought in Diggins and a young player to build around Jackson. It also acquired Jacy Sheldon using a first-rounder and used another first-rounder for expansion-draft protection, while still losing players.
