The basketball lovers were eagerly waiting for the 3rd clash between alleged rivals Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. The game lived up to its expectations, with the latter having the last laugh with her Chicago Sky teammates. Not only did Reese win the game but also managed to make a lasting impression on many including WNBA star A’ja Wilson.
Speaking about Reese’s outstanding performance, the 2-time WNBA champion said, “It’s huge. I feel like I said it around the Super Bowl. I was just like that is going to be Angel’s biggest thing: translation.’ Translating over from college to the pros is just rebounding the basketball… It’s pretty cool to see her flourish in that situation…You don’t see that in a lot of rookies.”
Being an exceptional talent herself, A’ja can identify a budding star when she sees them and Reese is nothing less than that. The Sky dominated the opening quarter but were comfortably outscored in the next two quarters. Then the forward came into the picture, scoring 10 points and grabbing 5 rebounds in the final quarter.
Angel Reese Set a New Record
Every player dreams of making it big in their rookie season, but not everyone succeeds in doing so. Angel Reese is one of the few who has garnered heaps of praise in her first season for etching her name in the WNBA’s history books.
On Sunday, the 22-year-old added her eighth straight double-double which has never been done before in the league by a rookie. Reese is also the only player after A’ja Wilson (2018) to put up at least 25 points and 15 rebounds in a game in her first season.
NBA superstar Shaquille O’Neal has already declared her as the Rookie Of The Year halfway into the season. Now it will be interesting to see whether Reese can actually lay her hand on the prestigious title.
