Angel Reese Eyes History With Record Double-Double Streak
Angel Reese is not playing fair—and the WNBA has officially been put on notice.
With her 15th consecutive double-double, Reese now stands alone atop the WNBA record books, breaking a mark that once seemed untouchable. Night after night, board after board, the Chicago Sky rookie continues to redefine dominance. But make no mistake: this isn’t the finish line for Reese. It’s just the first checkpoint.
“I’m coming for Wilt,” Reese declared—casually invoking the name of one of basketball’s most iconic stat monsters, the late, great Wilt Chamberlain. The Hall of Famer’s legendary 227-game double-double streak is still the gold standard, stretching across seasons and generations. But if you think Reese is intimidated, think again.
This isn’t just about numbers. This is about legacy.
Reese, known as the “Bayou Barbie,” has brought a rare blend of power, personality, and poise to the pros. She’s already racked up endorsements, inspired a new generation of hoopers, and turned postgame interviews into viral soundbites. But her production? Pure throwback. She’s channeling Wilt—not just in mindset, but in the box score.
Averaging a beastly double-double in her rookie campaign, Reese is anchoring the paint with a tenacity that’s becoming her trademark. Offensive rebounds? Automatic. Second-chance points? A given. Hustle plays? Every possession. She’s not just chasing history—she’s rewriting it in real time.
Of course, Chamberlain’s 227 remains a Goliath-sized mountain to climb. Wilt did it in an era with very different pace, style, and competition. But Reese’s streak comes in the ultra-physical, defensively evolved modern game—where nothing comes easy. That makes her run all the more impressive.
Let’s be real: 227 is wild. But 15 straight in your first season? That’s Wilt numbers only.
👑💅
So keep your eyes on No. 5 in Sky blue. Because if Angel Reese keeps this up, we might not just be watching greatness—we might be witnessing the dawn of a dynasty.
And to those asking if she’s got more in the tank?
“I’m just getting started.”
