Sky's Angel Reese becomes fastest to 20 double-doubles in loss #chicagosky #wnba #record

Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese scored 19 points and grabbed a career-high 20 rebounds in Sunday's 86-68 loss to the Phoenix Mercury, becoming the fastest in WNBA history to record 20 double-doubles.

The No. 7 draft pick has grabbed double-digit rebounds in 20 consecutive games and set the double-double record after just 27 games. Reese is now two double-doubles shy of matching the Sky single-season record (set by Sylvia Fowles in 2011) and the WNBA rookie record (set by Tina Charles in 2010).

The Sky (11-16) fell behind quickly in Sunday's game, thanks in part to Diana Taurasi scoring 12 of her 23 points in Phoenix's highest-scoring first quarter of the season; the frame ended with a 32-19 advantage for the Mercury.
