Atlanta Dream forward Angel Reese rebounded her way into the record books not once, but twice on Monday night.
In Atlanta's 78-71 victory over the Los Angeles Sparks, Reese recorded 26 rebounds to shatter Chamique Holdsclaw's single-game record (24) set back in 2003. By the time the final buzzer sounded, Reese had already surpassed A'ja Wilson's single-season rebounding record of 451.
Reese finished the night with 458 total rebounds for the season, scoring 11 points to help Atlanta clinch a fourth consecutive road win.
The Dream needed every single one of those 26 rebounds to survive their sluggish offense, as Los Angeles kept the game tight, forcing them into tough late-clock situations. Reese pulled down 8 offensive rebounds, with every missed jumper from Atlanta seemingly ending up in her hands.
She logged 38 minutes and added 3 ******* ists and 3 steals. However, her touch around the rim was erratic, shooting 4-for-14 from the floor.
