Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese made history on Sunday by achieving her 10th straight double-double, breaking the single-season record for consecutive double-doubles previously held by Candace Parker. Despite Reese’s impressive performance, the Sky lost to the Minnesota Lynx 70-62.
Leading the league with 11.4 rebounds per game, Reese is also a strong contender for Rookie of the Year alongside Caitlin Clark. Her scoring average of 13.3 points per game showcases her versatility and potential to become one of the top players in the league.
Reese’s dominance in double-doubles during her time at LSU has seamlessly transitioned to the WNBA. Her performance on the Sky has been outstanding and is the best among rookies, ranking 16th in the league in win shares per 40 minutes. She is just scratching the surface of her abilities, hinting at a bright future ahead.
Despite being the No. 7 overall pick in the draft, numerous teams may be regretting passing on Reese’s talents. Her success on the court and off it is inspiring, and she is sure to continue making an impact in years to come.
