Angel Reese isn't an efficient scorer at all, but she's incredibly important to the Chicago Sky because of her rebounding and defense. Is she the most impactful rookie in the WNBA? Are her ridiculous impact metrics authentic or lacking context?

This video examines her strengths and weaknesses, what coach Weatherspoon's scheme does to impact her stats, and how her skillset could determine what her ceiling is as a pro.

    Angel Reese is the reason why I started watching women’s basketball.
  • @boondoggle4820
    A lot of people with a shallow understanding of basketball criticize Reese’s game because it’s not flashy and thrilling to watch for them, which is what they think makes a good player, but Reese’s impact is undeniable. She also has the highest overall efficiency rating of any rookie at 19.3, while Clark sits at 16.1. Even if you don’t understand defense which most of these guys speaking on basketball don’t, it’s obvious how much more easily the other team scores when Reese is on the bench versus when she’s in the game. That’s a huge impact.

    What people don't understand is reese will to win and improve

    I’ve been waiting for a fully comprehensive video like this on both players…from someone that fully understands what the scouts look at and not just coaches, players, or general fans. The Lynx made her their ENTIRE assignment for a reason. I believe the Aces said she was the assignment too and they had a hard time with her.

    Most of angel flaws can be fixed

    It’s amazing that Angel Reese able to maintain with all this hate she is getting 😂. That’s because it’s not bothering her people you’re wasting your time. She’s getting this hate because people are actually envy of how she’s able to get things done without the help of the WNBA 😆. Angel Reese is getting it done on her own unlike someone else.
  • @Nubiansage1
    Because she averages Double Doubles and leads the Wnba in Rebounds . I would have to give it to Angel. It is hard to average 10 + rebounds a game and play defense against the best forwards in the Wnba.
  • @AmourThink79
    Great breakdown. Very succinct. Angel has a very high ceiling. I am excited to see how her career develops!
  • @donaldtillman4351
    Man this is a rookie that was picked 7th and she is leading the league in rebounding, but alas you failed to mention that. How about she’s only 6’3” and she is leading the league in rebounding. How many times have you seen that? She dominates games with her will and desire to be great. Just make sure that you mention CC is leading the league in turnover and the woman in second place is about 45 behind. So the passes her teammates drop she would still league with the ones that are her fault.
  • @TheJontue
    To me she is more valuable than people want to give her credit for. She playa hard and hopefully will work on her offensive game this off season.
  • @kikobubblegum6045
    Great assessment imo. I think she has a strong chance at winning ROTY. I look forward to watching her game develop and grow.
  • @jwil2414
    Before her injuries Reese was dunking. The rod in her leg and Jones fracture in foot has effected her athleticism.
  • @coachq5505
    This was a great breakdown. That scoop shot was a great point out. She really needs to work on her midrange. I think next year she’s going to be amazing if she puts the work in.
  • @RowdyOne4Five
    Once Angel gets an offseason it’s gonna be insane year 2. She’s already taking more midrange shots. Angel is an elite player and this is not just my words it’s the words of multiple players and coaches 🤷🏽‍♀️
  • @VincentScales
    Hopefully, she'll work on her shooting. Last i saw, she has her shot blocked 42 times, so far this season!
