Chicago Sky
The Sky haven’t been shy about expressing their praise for two-time WNBA most valuable player Candace Parker and what she brings to the team every time she steps on the court.
On Monday, during her first training-camp media availability with her hometown team, Parker shared what has impressed her about the Sky.
One word sums it up: communication.
‘‘Everything that is expected of me and this team is communicated well,’’ Parker said. ‘‘That’s sometimes the thing that takes the longest, and it seems like we’re right there.’’
Parker has been balancing two careers, one as a player and another as an analyst on Turner Sports’ NBA team. That has included broadcasts that end at 1 a.m., followed by 9 a.m. workouts. Her key has been taking things day by day.
