The Chicago Sky broke ground on a much-needed new practice facility on Wednesday, and during the ceremony, general manager Jeff Pagliocca spoke briefly to reporters. He discussed a few topics, most notably the decision to fire Teresa Weatherspoon after just one season and the organization's relationship with star rookie Angel Reese.

Chicago Sky leadership wanted to focus on the long term Wednesday as the team broke ground on construction of a new training facility in Bedford Park. The facility will cost more than $30 million, the Sky’s latest investment in staying competitive in a new era of the WNBA.
