Angel Reese has been undoubtedly one of the most social media savvy WNBA rookies this season. The Chicago Sky forward often posts on both X and Instagram to share updates about her personal life and even engage with fans. On Monday, however, she turned a lot of heads with what could be her best social media post yet.
On X, Reese shared several photos of her pregame outfit–a denim top and skirt–from Sunday’s battle with the Seattle Storm. The Sky All-Star then went on to caption it with an awesome wordplay referring to her double-double streak.
“i loveeee me a double double but i’ve never been a rebound,” Reese wrote along with a winking face emoji.

Against the Storm, Angel Reese broke Candace Parker’s WNBA record for the most consecutive double-doubles with 13. She has simply been a rebounding monster as well, with her current averages of 11.9 boards actually leading the whole WNBA–not just among rookies.
With that being said, her caption was definitely perfect and delightfully playful. For those not in the know, “rebound”–in dating that is–refers to someone who rushes into a relationship despite having not fully moved on from the previous one.

Sure enough, fans loved her message. And considering it’s about dating, the Reese’s Pieces (her fan base) will likely start talking about her romantic relationship, too.
