Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese had already set the WNBA’s most consecutive double-double’s record.
Coming into today’s 12pm game vs the Atlanta Dream, she was sitting on 13 in a row.
Going into the Sky’s final possession, she was sitting on a measly 9 PTS & 13 REB.
The Sky were up 7.
By all measures the game was over.
But Angel Reese wasn’t willing to let her streak die that easily.
And the rock is what she got.
Sorry I don’t know why I felt the need to transcribe what happened in the video there.
But that’s what happened.
Angel Reese kept her double-double streak alive by demanding the ball in garbage time and the internet is livid.
I mean, how else would you describe this action.
Stats are stupid anyways.
I’d probably do the exact some thing.
It’s fun to pad stats.
If you got a chance to keep a streak going then you might as well take it.
At least make light of it.
Give us a little, “Haha fuck you bitches I got my stats”.
Don’t be all serious and pretend you’re just going about your regular basketball playing business.
You know what you did.
Not taking yourself too seriously goes a long way.
Keep up the good work Angel.
Quite the impressive streak you got going.
Here’s to 14 more.
