The Chicago Sky celebrated a big win on Sunday, taking out the Los Angeles Sparks 92-85 at Crypto.com Arena.

The victory not only represented a major turning point for a franchise in need of a win, but also highlighted one of the league's hottest young stars, Angel Reese.

While the night was initially intended to celebrate Candace Parker’s Hall‑of‑Fame resume, it was Reese’s historic numbers and post-game celebration that stole the show.

After the final horn, the Sky’s social media team posted a brief clip on X of Reese storming into the locker room and jumping on a box with the word "Business," captioning it simply, “STOOD. ON. BUSINESS.”

Reese finished with a game‑high 24 points, 16 rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and a steal—becoming just the fourth player in history to secure 15+ points and 15+ rebounds in three straight games.

The only other players to achieve this feat are A'ja Wilson, Jonquel Jones and Lisa Leslie.

Beyond the sheer volume of her stat line, Reese’s consistency on the glass has been unmatched this season.

Just one year after setting the WNBA record for rebounds per game (13.1), she again leads the league in rebounding (12.3) and appears on her way to a second consecutive All-Star nod.

The Sky entered the night with a 4-11 record under first‑year head coach Tyler Marsh, sitting second last in the Eastern Conference.

Yet Chicago has shown signs of life in recent weeks, ripping off a win over the Sparks and a double-digit victory over the Connecticut Sun on June 15.

If Reese continues this level of production, the Sky could engineer the turnaround they desperately need.
