Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese has been a force on the boards in her first season, and she now has the all-time single-season rebounding record to her name. In the second quarter of her team’s matchup with the Minnesota Lynx on Sunday, Reese pulled down her 405th rebound of the season, surpassing Sylvia Fowles.
Reese, whose league-leading 12.9 rebounds per game would be the highest single-season average ever, is also on pace to break the mark for the most offensive rebounds in a season. Entering Sunday, she needed five more in that category to pass Hall of Famer Yolanda Griffith.
