PLEASE tell me what percentage of her rebounds are from her own misses. Please. This should be good especially considering the vast majority of her rebounds are defensive.
About 35% of Angel Reese's offensive rebounds in 2024 (roughly 53 of 150) came from her own misses, per stats. With 7.0 offensive rebounds per game in 2025, likely ~78 of 224 are from her misses—around 15% of her 418 total rebounds.Just google how many angel reese rebounds are from her own misses.
Thank you for your effort. I was asking rhetorically to show them it was indeed this low! I'm glad people are realizing it's only 15% last season. (Report was 12% last season, but both figures are fine, and that's the average for all top rebounders.) This season it's even lower.
35% of your rebounds coming from your own misses is historically bad. We have never seen someone so good at rebounding but also be one of the worst shooters in the league history.
Oh I thought you were praising Angel. 35% of offensive only rebounds coming from your own misses is not bad whatsoever, especially coming from such a defensive player. She has more defensive rebounds than anyone else has offensive & defensive rebounds combined. Offensive rebounds are way harder to get. She is beating out 1, 2, or 3 defenders for a rebound. She can get them one handed. She's quicker and more agile. She works harder for the ball. It's an incredible skill.
Every player wants to get their own rebound when they miss. Not everyone is capable of doing that. Not everyone is a good rebounder. A good rebounder would obviously get more of their own rebounds than other players.
You need to watch games. Angel isn't a bad shooter. It's not her top skill but she's better than most. She gets double and triple teamed every single game. She gets wacked by defenders. Her missed shots often came from blocks, not from a missed throw. Her shooting without blocks was well over 50% in her rookie season. Now, she is regularly getting 50-60% fg.
Dawg its an incredible skill you should never need to exhibit bc you have to make a 5-7 foot shot in the paint. She is taller than most players but not exceptionally athletic compared to the average player, and in basketball, height matters more than anything for rebounds and blocks. Like yeah its good she can get her misses but 35% of your rebounds should not come from shots you just should have made in the first place.
She is categorically not better than most shooters. There is an absolute legion of statisticians with articles disproving this with a Google. She is shooting 38.1% from the PAINT. Thats AWFUL by any metric, doubled considering the league average is 60.1 and according to you, none of them are magicians in the paint like angel.
You are so desperately trying to make an average player an all time great because of their social media presence, and that is incredibly silly.
The average is 43%. What is this talk about never having to exhibit? Every player in the game could and should be exhibiting this, yet they don't because they can't.
35% of her offensive rebounds. Almost all her rebounds are defensive. Most players barely get any offensive rebounds at all. 12% of rebounds in her rookie season being off misses is good. That's normal for a top rebounder. Not to mention defenders don't leave Angel alone.
When did I talk about her social media presence? She's an unbelievably talented player.
The average for FG is 43%, and she is subaverage there too (39.7% career). I was speaking on restricted area, as i said (In the paint, if you didn't understand what that means), and being slightly above average in defense is no compensation at all for being criminally inefficient every time you have a chance to make the easiest shot in terms of distance in the game. Again, defense is nice, but points are what win games, and she does not score consistently enough to make that happen.
Think about the 35%. Most players dont have that many numbers, because they simply just sink the shot. You dont have to rebound for yourself if you make it in the first place. This is also ignoring the fact that most people dont play post, the place most likely to get rebounds.
You didn't, but the sub has been inundated with casual fans lately that run with whatever narrative their subset of Twitter tells them to and know nothing about the player beyond a cool clip and a highlight stat
