Sky Waives Van Lith, Adds Natasha Cloud to Jumpstart their Rebuild
Chicago Sky waived Hailey Van Lith after one season due to a style-of-play mismatch, and signed veteran guard Natasha Cloud to a one-year, $555,000 deal to help their rebuild after a 10–34 season and trading Angel Reese. Van Lith, the 11th pick in 2025, will be free to sign with another team once waivers clear, with Seattle, Atlanta, Portland (Fire), and Toronto (Tempo) among reported potential destinations ahead of the May 7 roster deadline. Cloud brings a track record of defense and playmaking as the Sky reshuffle their roster with Diggins, Jaquez, Jackson, and Stevens joining the rotation.
