Angel Reese breaks her own WNBA record during Dream’s West Coast trip
Angel Reese needed only two offensive rebounds against the Sparks to break a WNBA record she already owned.
Angel Reese shattered her own single-season WNBA offensive rebounding record during the Atlanta Dream's West Coast trip. Entering the game against the Los Angeles Sparks needing two offensive rebounds to set a new mark, Reese achieved the feat with 2:04 left in the second quarter. This total surpassed her previous record of 172, set as a rookie with the Chicago Sky in 2024.
Reese had previously needed 34 games to reach 172 rebounds in her rookie season, and achieved that milestone through 34 appearances with Atlanta. Now, she holds the record after matching it in just 34 games with her current team. Known for her ability to turn missed shots into additional possessions, Reese's performance adds to the Dream's success as they prepare for their postseason position. With more games in the season, it remains to be seen how much higher Reese can elevate her record.
