Reese earned All-Star and All-Rookie honors for her performance in 2024. She has followed that up with a strong start to her sophomore season, as she is averaging 11.7 points and a league-best 12.3 rebounds per game through 15 contests.<\/p>\n

In her last two performances, Reese has recorded 35 points, 35 rebounds and eight assists, becoming the first player in WNBA history to achieve these numbers in a two-game span (via Polymarket Hoops<\/a>).<\/p>\n

After her 13th rebound in the game, the Sky announced that Reese moved into 10th place in the franchise’s all-time leaderboard for rebounds. This achievement is so historic because Reese accomplished it in just her second WNBA season.<\/p>\n

“BOARD BARBIE \ud83d\udc51 ,” the Sky wrote.\u00a0“Angel Reese just entered the Chicago Sky\u2019s all-time top 10 for rebounds, and she\u2019s only in YEAR 2. anything off that board? yeah, it\u2019s HERS.”<\/p>\n

Reese’s moving into the 10th all-time in Sky rebounding is also an incredible accomplishment because Sunday marked just her 50th career game. This means she has averaged 12.9 rebounds per game in her career.<\/p>\n
