Through 19 games played this season for Reese, she has finished with 13 double-doubles. She leads the league in double-doubles, as she looks to improve on her impressive rookie season when she finished as the runner-up in Rookie of the Year voting.
While Reese continues to play some of the best basketball of her young, WNBA career, she has also had an eventful week. The 23-year-old forward was selected to her second All-Star team this season. She was selected by MVP front-runner, Napheesa Collier to be part of Team Collier for the WNBA All-Star Game against Team (Caitlin) Clark.
The Sky have three games remaining on their homestand leading into the All-Star break. Their next game will be against Reese's All-Star captain, Collier, and the Minnesota Lynx.
The Sky will take on the Lynx on Saturday at 1:00 p.m. EDT on ABC. Reese will look to extend her double-double streak to eight straight games.
