Angel Reese Claps Back at Haters After Earning Second All-Star Selection

Despite the Chicago Sky’s 5-12 start to the 2025 WNBA season, Angel Reese continues to do her part.

The second-year forward is averaging a double-double with 12.6 points and 12.8 rebounds per game. She currently leads the WNBA in rebounding—right in line with how she finished her rookie season when she led the league in the same category.

On Sunday, Reese earned her second All-Star selection of her young career and is headed to Indianapolis on July 19.

Meanwhile, the 23-year-old has been a target on social media for her playing style. Since the start of the season, fans have claimed Reese’s high rebounding totals come from always grabbing her own misses, calling them "Mebounds."

Reese responded by trademarking the term on June 20 and launching an entire apparel line. But since becoming a two-time All-Star, she has once again addressed the haters.

In a video on TikTok, she danced and wrote, "2X All-Star." Then, in the caption, she added, "oh i thought somebody said summmm😜."

Reese has been on a historic roll lately. After her 16 points, 17 rebounds and six assists against the Minnesota Lynx on Sunday night, she now ranks fifth all-time in WNBA history for the most games with at least 15 points, 15 rebounds and 5 assists.

She also holds the record for the most rebounds over a five-game span with 88 and rounds out the entire top five for that achievement.

These are just a few of the historic feats Reese has pulled off recently. With five games to go before the All-Star Game, she’ll look to keep the momentum going.
