Angel Reese is Getting Better and the Haters Won’t Admit It”: WNBA Fans React as Sky Star Etches Her Name in History with Latest Rebound Record
Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese continues to silence doubters and elevate her game to historic heights. On Tuesday night, Reese etched her name in WNBA history by becoming the first rookie to record 13 consecutive double-doubles — breaking a long-standing record held by basketball legend Candace Parker. With 17 points and 14 rebounds against the Atlanta Dream, Reese not only helped lead her team to a crucial win, but also solidified her status as one of the league’s brightest young stars.
Fans across social media were quick to praise the 22-year-old forward for her consistency, hustle, and growth. Many pointed out how critics, who once labeled her as “overhyped,” are now quiet as she continues to dominate the glass and evolve offensively. “Angel Reese is getting better and the haters won’t admit it,” one fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “She’s a rebounding machine and she’s only getting started.”
Since being drafted seventh overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft, Reese has steadily improved her game, becoming a double-double threat every night. Her relentless work ethic and on-court leadership have not only earned her respect from teammates and coaches, but also caught the attention of fans and analysts alike.
While some skeptics continue to question aspects of her game, most now acknowledge that Reese is proving herself in real time. The rookie is averaging a double-double for the season and has played a vital role in keeping the Sky competitive in a stacked Eastern Conference.
With her name now in the record books, Angel Reese is proving that she’s not just a social media sensation — she’s a force to be reckoned with in the WNBA. And as she keeps improving, her doubters are running out of excuses.
