Angel Reese Begins Year 2 with Chicago Sky

CHICAGO, IL — Angel Reese is back on the court for her second season with the Chicago Sky, and she’s ready to build on her historic rookie year. After a standout debut season in 2024, Reese is poised to take her game—and the Sky—to new heights.

A Record-Breaking Rookie Season

Reese’s first year in the WNBA was nothing short of spectacular. She led the league in rebounds per game with an average of 13.1, setting a new single-season record with 446 total rebounds. Her 26 double-doubles also set a league record for consecutive double-doubles in a season. Additionally, Reese became the first rookie to achieve a double-double in a WNBA All-Star Game, finishing with 12 points and 11 rebounds in a victory over the U.S. national team.

Overcoming Injury Setbacks

Despite her impressive performance, Reese’s rookie season was cut short due to a wrist injury that required surgery. She returned to the court during the inaugural season of the Unrivaled 3-on-3 league, where she led Rose Basketball Club to a championship and became the first player in the league to record a 20-20 game. Reese’s resilience and determination have been evident as she continues to recover and prepare for the upcoming season. (Angel Reese, Angel Reese injury clouds her return to WNBA)
