Angel Reese’s prowess is reaching new heights for the Sky.
The 22-year-old rookie posted her career highs in rebounds and then in points in Chicago’s last two games. And she did so en route to an even greater accomplishment.
Reese’s latest two double-doubles secured her a space in the WNBA record books. She moved into a tie with Candace Parker for the longest double-double streak in WNBA history with 12 in a row.
The newly minted WNBA All-Star notched 12 points and a career-high 19 rebounds Tuesday in an 85-77 win over the Dream. Then she posted a personal-best 27 points and 10 rebounds Friday in an 88-84 win against the Storm.
Her recent performances have reinforced Reese’s place right alongside her rival Caitlin Clark in the 2024 Rookie of the Year race. And with one more double-double, she could secure solo possession of the record for longest streak.
Here’s what you need to know about Reese’s record chase, which continues at 6 p.m. ET Sunday with another game in Seattle.
