Is it true Angel Reese has 16 blocks but has been blocked 70 times?

Regardless of what one might think about the WNBA, women's basketball, etc, this is actually pretty cool.

WNBA advanced stats show 16 and 76 LINK that would be about 18.6 % of shots that are blocked


Probably not fair to compare her to Aja Wilson or Caitlin Clark on those numbers but Rickea Jackson has 8 and 15 (or about 2.3 % of her shots blocked) Jackson is probably the one hurt mist in these conversations. She has had a good rookie season and the only time she was really mentioned was early in the season when pundits had her second in ROY behind Reese and ahead of Clark (FWIW Clark is 26 and 24 or about 5 percent of shots blocked)

Check this out, Look at her impact.

Generational talent

The WNBA's Indiana Fever have released mid-season growth numbers:
TICKET SALES
• Sold out 100% of season ticket inventory
• Total attendance is up 264% from last year
• 186,000 fans have attended a Fever home game
• 230,000 fans have attended a Fever road game
MERCHANDISE SALES
• 1,193% increase in jersey sales from last year
• Team store transactions are up 700% from 2023
• Broke the franchise single-game merchandise sales record four times
CONCESSION SALES
• Hot dog sales are up 300% so far this year
• 2,826 gallons of draft beer have been sold in 2024 (+740%)
SOCIAL MEDIA METRICS
• Over 800 million views in the last four months alone
• Added 1.3 million followers since April 15th
• The Fever have more social media views than any other WNBA, NBA, NFL, NHL, or MLB team over the last 4+ months
TV VIEWERSHIP
• 38 games on national TV this year (most in the WNBA)
• Set records for most-viewed WNBA games on ABC, ION, ESPN, and NBA TV
CORPORATE PARTNERSHIPS
• 225% increase in partnerships
• Largest number of team sponsors in the WNBA
The 2024 WNBA season is only about halfway over — but it's safe to say Caitlin Clark is a game-changer.

What’s funny is that she is essentially handling this like Nikola Jokic.

How many of her own rebounds did she get? That is the true measure of greatness.



Not sure but if she had just 3 more turnovers she would have had a quadruple double.
