In a thrilling Friday night 3-on-3 Unrivaled league game, Angel Reese delivered a spectacular performance, achieving a historic 20-20 game before fouling out. The 2023 NCAA champion showcased her exceptional skills, scoring 22 points and grabbing an impressive 21 rebounds, a first in the league's history.
Representing the Rose Basketball Club, Reese's dominance in the paint led to a controversial charging call against her defender, ultimately resulting in her fouling out. Despite her frustration and plea for a coach's challenge, the call stood, ending her night early. Her team, however, secured a 72-63 victory.
Following the game, a fan's praise on social media prompted Reese to embrace her detractors, encouraging them to maintain their perspective. This reflects her confident and unapologetic approach to the game. Reese, the seventh overall pick in last year's WNBA draft by the Chicago Sky, continues to build on her successful collegiate career at LSU, which culminated in a national championship victory against Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes in 2023.
In her rookie WNBA season, Reese set a new single-season rebounding record, which was later surpassed by multi-time MVP A'ja Wilson.
