The post Angel Reese Sets WNBA Offensive Rebounding Record in Wing Pullback appeared first on Clutch Points.
The Chicago Sky earned their first win of the 2025 WNBA season after defeating the Dallas Wings 97-92 on Thursday. With the victory, the Sky improved to 1-4. Sky star Angel Reese didn’t finish with her customary double-double, but she still managed to set a WNBA rebounding record in the win.
During the Sky’s win over the Wings, Angel Reese set a WNBA record by becoming the fastest player to reach 200 offensive rebounds, according to Polymarkets Hoops. She finished with nine rebounds against the Wings, four of which were offensive rebounds. She also had six points and five assists in 25 minutes.
In the same game, veteran point guard Courtney Vandersloot became the franchise’s all-time leading scorer.
The Sky victory was just the second game this season that Reese didn’t finish with a double-double and the first game that she didn’t reach double digits in rebounds. The No. 7 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft, Reese set several rebounding records as a rookie. She also made her first All-Star appearance as a rookie.
During the Sky’s first four games of the regular season, Reese played just over 29 minutes per game while taking about ten attempts per game. She averaged 10.0 points, 14.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 2.0 steals on splits of 31% shooting from the field, 33.3% shooting from the three-point line and 65% shooting from the free throw line.
Last season, Reese appeared in 34 games as a rookie before having her year cut short due to a wrist injury. Prior to that, the Sky was in playoff contention with Reese averaging 13.6 points, 13.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 1.3 steals. She received a first-place vote for the Rookie of the Year award.
The Sky will play a second straight game against the Wings, starting on Saturday. While Thursday’s game was at home for the Sky, the second meeting will be on the road.
