When you look into Angel Reese's advanced stats, it's clear she has gotten better (as have the Sky) as the season has gone on.

First impressions were rough: In 6 games in May, she averaged 10ppg on just 31% FG. 
But in June, in 10 games, she averaged nearly 14ppg, while shooting 46% FG. 
And in just 4 games in July, she's averaging 18ppg while shooting 53% FG.

The other big difference between last year and this year is that they are putting her in a lot more playmaking opportunities. Her assists have soared (3.8apg in 2025 vs 1.9apg in 2024), though so have her turnovers. Still, she's making plays for others.

All this being said, the reason Reese will always be a significant figure in the WNBA is she is likely the best rebounder the league has ever seen (And it has nothing to do with "Me-bounds." You take out all her offensive rebounds (which are not all her own missed shots anyway), and she still is averaging the 3rd most rebounds per game in the league.) Even with the shooting woes early in the season, she averaged more that 12rpg each month of the season thus far.
