Angel Reese and the Atlanta Dream made it two wins in a row on Sunday, defeating the Phoenix Mercury in a tightly contested home game, 82-80.

Reese turned in another strong performance in the victory, registering a 17-point, 10-rebound double-double in 32 minutes of action. The two-time WNBA All-Star added four assists, four steals and a block in an impressive all-around outing. Reese still struggled with her efficiency, though, shooting just 6-of-16 from the field and 5-of-10 from the charity stripe.

The Dream improved to 4-1 after Sunday’s win. They are sitting atop the WNBA with the league’s best record. Atlanta currently has a 0.5-game advantage over the Indiana Fever, Minnesota Lynx and the defending champions, the Las Vegas Aces.

Angel Reese makes more WNBA history

Reese marked another career milestone on Sunday, in just her fifth game for Atlanta following her offseason blockbuster trade from the Chicago Sky. This is after she surpassed 950 points and 850 rebounds in her career. The WNBA took to social media to announce the 24-year-old’s latest feat.

“She just keeps on workin’ 💪

“Angel Reese (69 games) is now the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 950+ points and 850+ rebounds, surpassing Tina Charles (75 games).”

Reese needed six fewer games to beat former WNBA MVP Tina Charles’ all-time record. This speaks volumes about how Reese has taken the league by storm in her first three seasons as a pro.

Reese is not exactly the most prolific scorer in the WNBA, but few will argue against the notion that she is one of, if not the best rebounder in the league right now.

Reese led the WNBA in rebounds in her first two seasons, while she was still with the Sky. Heading into Sunday’s matchup, the 6-foot-4 forward ranked second in the league in rebounds this season with 11.8 per game. Reese is currently trailing Washington Mystics forward Kiki Iriafen, who’s averaging 12.8 boards per contest.

Reese and the Dream now get two days off before their next game. They will return to action on Wednesday for a road matchup against the 4-2 Minnesota Lynx at Target Center.
