League leaders in rebounds:

1.
Angel Reese • ATL
458
2.
Jessica Shepard • DAL
410
3.
Shakira Austin • WAS
350
4.
A'ja Wilson • LVA
341
5.
Jonquel Jones • NYL
340
6.
Kamilla Cardoso • CHI
337
7.
Nneka Ogwumike • LAS
330
8.
Kiki Iriafen • WAS
327
9.
Natasha Howard • MIN
302
10.
Breanna Stewart • NYL
301



If you take away the "mebounds" from the top two only, Angel is still leading the league in rebounds.

Impressive.

Yes, ignore the facts. You lemmings keep believing every TikTok clip and FoxNews article about Angel.

There is simply no way some of you care enough about the WNBA to discuss it on a daily basis.

Of course the clips are real, she has rebounded her own misses 54 times. A positive in my view.

But don't be a lemming and believe people with an agenda who just post the worst three seconds from a game. Ask yourself this, are those same people posting all the highlights from All-Star Angel or just trying to find short clips to make her look bad?

That number is arbitrary and not factual. She is an excellent rebounder, but real stats based on her sub-50% shooting percentage within 5-ft and the fact that 42% of her rebounds are offensive, there is no possible way she has less than 100 self rebounds. It is not statistically possible with her shooting stats and rebounding ability.

That's not a criticism of her, I would take someone who can keep the ball in our possession off a miss 10 times out of 10. Fake stats that aren't backed up by actual metrics though make it look like you are trying to make her something she is not.

Didn’t she miss a break away lay up to lose the game against Caitlin Clark last week ?

(That was a rhetorical question. Yes she did)

Most of those shots are within 1' of the rim, which shouldn't even require the ball to be rebounded. If I were her, I would just make the layup.

You have to understand that’s because we see 2 minute clips where she gets 4+ mebounds in 2 possessions and then we extrapolate that out.

It’s very, VERY hard to trust she isn’t getting more of them throughout a game.

We don’t watch full games so it’s easy to sway us.

ETA: Plus we’re used to great rebounders showing very obvious skill. Mental, reactionary, feet, athleticism, grit, etc.

We see her being extremely unathletic with no feel. What else are we supposed to think about her and her rebounding?

ETA 2: She’s played 37 games this year for 1.45 mebounds according to you. It’s extremely hard to believe that’s all she gets based off clips we see.

I'm convinced 95% of the posters are paid shills, there's 5x more threads on here about the WNBA than the NBA

She is a great rebounder in the WNBA. No one is arguing this.

Of the top 10 rebounders she has the most turnovers per game and the lowest FG%.

All 3 of those are true.

This is going to make someone who claims to not care anything about the Wnba, very upset.
