2018 Chicago Sky season


The 2018 Chicago Sky season is the franchise's 13th season in the Women's National Basketball Association. The regular season tipped off on May 6, and concludes on August 19.
The Sky started the season off with wins over Indiana and New York and finished 2–2 in May. However, the team couldn't keep the momentum and lost 7 of their next 8 games. The Sky ended June on a 3 game win streak with a 4–7 overall record. The winning streak didn't last long, as the team went 4–8 in July. All 4 July wins came against eventual playoff teams, but the Sky also had 4 losses against teams that would not end up in the playoffs. A 3–4 August meant the Sky missed the playoffs for the second straight year. They were 2 wins behind the 8th seed Dallas Wings.
On August 31, 2018, the Sky relieved Amber Stocks as head coach and general manager.
