Angel Reese made history by breaking a record set by Candace Parker in 2015. Her family, including her nervous mother, was in attendance at Wintrust Arena to witness the momentous occasion. Cameras captured her mother’s live reaction as Angel achieved the record with just 23.2 seconds left in the game.
Despite her impressive performance, Reese’s team, the Chicago Sky, has struggled this season with a record of 6-11. The team has only won three games at home. However, Reese has been a standout player in the league, leading in rebounds per game and ranking second in points per game among all rookies.
During the game where she made history, Reese scored 10 points and grabbed 16 rebounds. This achievement solidified her as one of the most impressive rookies in the WNBA this season. Her family was proud of her accomplishments and looked forward to seeing what she would achieve next on the court.
