Angel Reese is having a moment, but not the kind the media tried to script. After a string of dominant performances in her rookie WNBA season, Reese found herself catching heat online from critics coining a new (and shady) term: “mebounds.”
BUT THE GAG IS: IT’S NOT EVEN TRUE.
THE NARRATIVE DIDN’T MATCH THE STATS.
📊 THE RECEIPTS
Angel Reese is already one of the best rebounders in WNBA history, and she’s only in her second season. If you removed every player’s self-rebounds from the league, Angel would still be the only one averaging a double-double this season.
In fact, in her last three games alone? 📊33 rebounds. Zero came from her own missed shots.
😂 She laughed.
💸 And then she trademarked it.
Enter: Mebounds.
