Watch: Angel Reese Hilariously Mocked During Pick-Up Game as NBA Star Calls Out Her Biggest Flaw
The text discusses the careers of two prominent WNBA players, Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark. Reese, who was drafted No. 7 in the WNBA draft, has made a significant impact during her rookie season with the Chicago Sky, averaging approximately 13 points and 13 rebounds per game. Notably, she set a new single-season rebounding record in the WNBA with 418 rebounds. Despite some struggles with scoring, she achieved her 24th double-double of the season, showcasing her overall contributions.
Caitlin Clark, who played for Iowa and had an impressive 41-point game to help her team reach the NCAA Final Four, now plays for the Indiana Fever, averaging around 19 points and eight assists per game. Both players are contenders for the WNBA’s Rookie of the Year award, with Clark being seen as having an edge in the race.
The article also highlights a humorous moment involving former NBA star Dwight Howard, who mocked a fellow player for mimicking Reese’s tendency to miss layups and then recover for rebounds.
Former NBA star Dwight Howard poked fun at a fellow player during a pick-up basketball game for pulling an “Angel Reese.”
Reese has become notorious during her rookie season in the WNBA for missing shots close to the bucket — and often times getting her own rebound and finally sinking the basket.
In a video posted on social media, a man can been seen getting his own rebound four times before finally making his shot.

Despite the misses, Reese is having an incredible rookie year, breaking the single season rebound record for the WNBA on Sunday, with 418 through 32 games.
She also had her 24th double-double of the season in that game against the Minnesota Lynx, i.e., double-digits in two of the following, assists, blocks, points, rebounds and steals.
Reese was drafted No. 7 in WNBA draft in the spring coming out of Louisiana State University, where she led the Tigers to their first women’s national championship in 2023 over the University of Iowa, with its star Caitlin Clark.
This past spring Clark turned in a 41-point performance to lead Iowa to victory over LSU in the NCAA tournament. Iowa advanced to the final four, but came up short in the championship game against the University of South Carolina.
Clark now plays guard for the Indiana Fever, where she is averaging about 19 points per game with eight assists.
