After the game, Reese spoke with the media about her productive outing. She even sent a strong message about her rebounding prowess against the Sparks on Sunday.<\/p>\n

“When somebody can’t stop you on the boards, it leads to more points for us,” Reese said.<\/p>\n

Reese went on to talk about<\/a> her early-season struggles, as she was averaging just 10.1 points per game on 35.8% shooting through the first eight contests. Since then, she has averaged 13.4 points per game on 42.9% shooting.<\/p>\n

“I went through a storm through the first 8 games where I couldn’t finish and it was frustrating. But I trusted my work, and my teammates trusted my work in finally coming through and coming through efficiently.”<\/p>\n
