Tallies nine points in loss Jackson logged nine points (2-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and an assist in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 87-78 preseason loss to the Dream.

Impact Jackson wasn't particularly efficient from the floor during Wednesday's exhibition, but she was perfect from the charity stripe to help her tie for the second-highest scoring total on the team in the loss. She's had plenty of shot volume during the preseason, as she recorded 15 points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 9-9 FT) to go with three rebounds and two assists during Saturday's exhibition loss to Phoenix. Although the Sky have played without several players during the preseason, Jackson should have plenty of opportunities to contribute for her new team once the regular season begins.

Drops 15 points Saturday Jackson generated 15 points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 9-9 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 21 minutes during Saturday's 108-104 preseason loss to Phoenix.

Impact Jackson was traded to the Sky from the Sparks in mid-April, and she made an impact during her preseason debut with Chicago, leading the team in playing time while finishing second in points behind a perfect showing from the charity stripe. Jackson should have ample opportunities to carve out a prominent role in Chicago during the 2026 campaign.
