Angel Reese’s record-breaking double-double run now stands at 15 games. The rookie for the Chicago Sky led the club in scoring with 10 points and grabbing 10 rebounds in Thursday, July 11’s 91-76 road loss to the New York Liberty.
Even if she didn’t have a very good game, the “Chi Barbie” is still having a great first season. Reese remarked, “The basketball gods keep blessing me.” “I have no idea how I accomplished that. Naturally, I didn’t have a wonderful evening tonight.
The WNBA rookie found the game against the Liberty to be difficult; with 2:12 remaining in the game, Reese pulled down her tenth rebound.
Teresa Weatherspoon, the head coach of Chicago, remarked, “She goes hard; she’s not out there for records, she’s out there for victories.” “She
puts in the work, it just so happens every time you look at the stat sheet there she is again with a double-double. I’m sure she’d want the win more than just the double-double.”
Reese is in contention for the league’s Rookie of the Year Award. This week, she was the first rookie this season to win the WNBA Player of the Week. In week seven of the WNBA season, the former LSU star averaged 16.8 points, 14 rebounds, and 1.2 assists. She was also named to this month’s All-Star Game in Phoenix.
Reese was named WNBA Rookie of the Month in June when she averaged 14.5 points and 13.2 rebounds per game and had double-digit rebounds in all 11 games. After her record-breaking performance in June, she now leads the league in rebounding with 11.4 a game.
Thursday’s game broke the previous home attendance record for the Liberty. Earlier this season, the team faced another star rookie and Reese’s nemesis, Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever. A record 17,758 people at Barclays Center witnessed Reese continue her double-double streak.
