Angel Reese’s Painful Realization About Her ‘Problem’ After Chicago Sky Loss.
Angel Reese secured WNBA history on Sunday, but that wasn’t enough to put a smile on the rookie’s face.
The Chicago Sky suffered their sixth straight loss of the season, falling to the Minnesota Lynx 79-74.
Reese racked up her 418th rebound of the season against Minnesota, after recording 17 points and 19 boards in the game. She became the No. 1 player in total rebounds in a single WNBA season, passing league legend Sylvia Fowles who had 404 for the record.
Following the game, Reese spoke about the WNBA record. She mentioned that she needs to give herself more credit for achieving the feat, but right now, she’s not focused on individual accolades.
“I really don’t give myself grace,” Reese said. “That’s probably another problem. Just being able to think about the next game. I don’t know the individual accolades that I get… When we start winning, okay cool, congrats Angel.
Winning is the No. 1 priority for Reese and the Sky at this point. The rookie has explained that it’s incredible to achieve the things she’s been able to accomplish but even went as far as saying she has to improve as a player.
While she’s a phenomenal rebounder, Reese made it clear that she has to impact the game on other levels for the Sky to be victorious.
“I just wanna focus on winning right now,” Reese said. “I just can’t be rebounding. It has to be more.”
From the naked eye, it seems Reese has had a successful season in terms of scoring and rebounding.
The problem with Reese has been in the efficiency category. She’s shooting 38.6% from the field despite most of her attempts coming within 10 feet of the basket.
Reese seems to realize that she needs to improve in other areas of the game in order to help her stock rise even more.
