Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese recorded the first triple-double of her career in Sunday’s game against the Connecticut Sun.
Reese had 11 points, 13 rebounds, and 11 assists in a team-high 36 minutes in Chicago’s 78-66 victory over Connecticut. Reese set her milestone on an assist to Ariel Atkins, who hit a long two-point shot to put the Sky up by 14 with 2:45 left.
Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark had the WNBA’s other triple-double this season with a 20-point, 10-rebound, and 10-assist performance in a win over the Sky on May 17.
Reese, in her second year, is averaging 10.3 points, 11.8 rebounds, and 2.7 assists for Chicago, which had five players in double figures against the Sun and broke a three-game losing streak.
The 23-year-old Reese has set numerous WNBA records in her short time in the league.
Earlier this season, she became the fastest player to reach 500 career points and 500 rebounds, setting the mark in just 38 career games.
Last season, she set league marks with the most rebounds per game (13.1), total rebounds in a season (446), and offensive rebounds in a season (172). Reese also had 26 double-doubles in 2024, including 15 straight at one point to set another record.
