On Sunday, Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese made history by securing her 10th consecutive double-double. This achievement surpassed the previous single-season record of nine held by Candace Parker since 2015. Despite her team falling short against the Minnesota Lynx with a final score of 70-62, Reese’s remarkable performance included grabbing 16 rebounds and scoring 10 points.
Reese has demonstrated her dominance on the court during her college years at LSU, excelling at producing double-doubles. She seamlessly transitioned this skill to the WNBA and is currently leading the league in average rebounds per game with 11.4. Her versatility is also evident as she averages 13.3 points per game, showcasing her potential to become one of the top players in the league as she continues to grow.
Several teams that passed on Reese’s exceptional talents during the draft are now second-guessing their decision. Currently ranking 16th in the league for win shares per 40 minutes, Reese’s performance is the best on her team and sets her apart as a leading rookie in the WNBA.
