CHICAGO — Because this was not Angel Reese’s actual first return to her first professional basketball home, the welcome back Tuesday was a little muted.Just one fan hustled to floor level to hold up a sign a few feet from Reese when the Atlanta Dream emerged for stretching. Only one more displayed a sign behind the visitors’ bench. Hoots and whistles followed her official introduction — “At center, Angel Reese” — just before the 6 p.m. CT tipoff, but dissipated quickly. There was no in-game tribute video like the one that ran inside Wintrust Arena when Reese and her club swung through for a preseason game in late April.Yes, Chance the Rapper was on hand to emphatically check the box for celebrity audience members. But four minutes before the Chicago Sky’s initial meeting with the two-time All-Star they traded in the offseason — in a game that counted, anyway — anyone else could get in the building for less than $20.Now that people had been here and done this twice, maybe it was only right that the basketball was more compelling than the back story. A fourth-quarter surge led the Dream to an 82-75 win over the scuffling but persistent Sky, with Reese showing up in town and generally doing what she’s been doing: Occupying space in the middle of everything.The third-year center finished with 17 points, 17 rebounds, four assists, two steals, six turnovers and a team-high plus-18 rating when she was on the floor. The night also featured just her second made 3-pointer of the year, an emphatic demand for a review to overturn an illegal screen call in the third quarter — turned out Reese was right — and a huge offensive board with 90 seconds left that led to Allisha Gray’s bucket and an 8-point lead. Reese’s layup with 56.1 seconds left to bump the advantage to 10 was the icing.
