Angel Reese, the rookie sensation for the Chicago Sky, has made a significant mark on the WNBA by setting a new record with seven consecutive double-doubles, an accomplishment previously unachieved in the league's history, according to reports from FOX 5 DC.

During their clash with the Dallas Wings, Reese's standout performance of 16 points paired with a career-high 18 rebounds drove the Sky to snap a losing streak and clench an 83-72 victory, CBS Sports puts her current season averages at 12.4 points and 10.8 rebounds per game, Reese's impact not only breaks a record but potentially sets the tone for a challenging pursuit of the rookie season record of 22 double-doubles set by Tina Charles in 2010, with Reese already counting eight to her name and 26 games still up in her sleeve.

"It’s super exciting for myself," Reese conveyed her enthusiasm in an interview with ESPN. Reflecting on her potential for growth, Reese acknowledges her accomplishments while also hinting at the room for improvement.

Another layer to this emerging WNBA story is Reese's connection to Sylvia Fowles, a legendary figure in women's basketball and record holder for the most double-doubles in a WNBA career, Reese didn't shy from expressing her gratitude towards Fowles, who once nicknamed her the "Miss Double-Double Queen" during her college time at LSU and served as a mentor, she revealed in an interview posted by Houston Public Media.

The Chicago Sky are on the brink of another significant matchup, this time against the Indiana Fever, which is spearheaded by Clark, another top-tier rookie.
