Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky secured their second win of the season with an impressive performance, defeating the formidable New York Liberty with a final score of 90-81. This victory propelled the Chicago Sky to a 2-1 record for the season.
Reese’s performance in the game was solid but not outstanding. She scored 13 points but struggled with her shooting, making only 30% of her attempts. However, she made significant contributions in other areas, grabbing nine rebounds, dishing out an assist, and recording a steal. Her defensive presence was particularly noteworthy, as she played a key role in containing former MVP Breanna Stewart.
During the game, the former LSU Tiger made WNBA history. She became just the third player ever to record at least 15 offensive rebounds in their first three career games. The statistic was posted online by the official WNBA account. “Angel Reese becomes the 3rd player in WNBA History to grab at least 15 offensive rebounds in their first 3 games”
