    On the right day, Kamilla Cardoso can’t be stopped. And Thursday was one of those days. Or, more accurately, a wrong day for any member of the Dallas Wings frontcourt. Cardoso bludgeoned the Wings for the Chicago Sky’s first 10 points of the 97-92 win. For 26 minutes, Cardoso put on a clinic for post play — diving to the low block for layups, crashing through defenders to draw fouls and slipping under her man for seals. Cardoso set a new career-high with her 23 points.

    All is fair in love and basketball for Courtney Vandersloot. The Chicago Sky point guard proved that in the third quarter of Thursday night’s 97-92 win over the Dallas Wings when she broke the all-time franchise scoring record with a pull-up jumper. Vandersloot finished with 13 points to raise her career total with the Sky to 3,728. She added nine assist and four steals. The historic moment was also a family affair — after all, she broke a record held by her wife, Allie Quigley.

    Candace Parker will be enshrined at Wintrust Arena this summer. The Chicago Sky will retire Parker’s No. 3 jersey on Aug. 25 before a game against the Las Vegas Aces.

    It’s not quite disaster yet. But the opening four games of the WNBA season have raised critical concerns for the Chicago Sky, who will seek their first win of the year Thursday against the Dallas Wings at Wintrust Arena. The Sky racked up four losses in the first 10 days of regular-season play — a pair of blowouts to the Indiana Fever and New York Liberty followed by a couple of closer defeats to the Los Angeles Sparks and Phoenix Mercury.

    The Chicago Sky are gaining interest from their WNBA competitors — but not in the areas that might be expected after two years of drafting big-name talent such as Angel Reese and Kamilla Cardoso. The WNBA released a general managers survey Thursday, providing insight into how the top executives of all 13 teams view their competition. The results gave a firm vote of confidence to the Sky’s reworked coaching staff and offseason roster construction.
