Angel Reese becomes fastest WNBA player to 1,000 career rebounds

ATLANTA ― Angel Reese is in a league of her own. The Atlanta Dream star is officially the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 1,000 career rebounds.

At the 4:29 mark of the third quarter during an 113-96 win over the Indiana Fever, Reese grabbed an offensive rebound after a miss by Allisha Gray. She then tossed it for two points. Her 1,000 rebounds in 79 games is the quickest in WNBA history, outpacing Tina Charles (89 games).

"I think people don't realize, rebounding is harder than you think. Defensive rebounds (are) a little bit more easier, but going in and crashing every single time to get second-chance opportunities on the offensive end," Reese said of her milestone.

"You can look statistically, but not just from my shots but from my teammates, and it gives us more points. It gives us more opportunities. Just being able to come out and do what I do every single night just shows my consistency."
