With Angel Reese gobbling up rebounds at a record pace, a common question that comes up is how tall is Angel Reese? Currently, the divisive player for the Chicago Sky is leading the entire WNBA in double-doubles, rebounding, and setting records what feels like every night. So much so that she’s neck and neck with Caitlin Clark as the two favorites for the WNBA Rookie of the Year award.
Angel has been a rebounding machine entering the league, so let’s get into what makes Reese so good at pulling in missed shots. And no she doesn’t just rebound her own missed shots as some like to mistakenly say online.
How Tall is Angel Reese?
According to WNBA.com and ESPN.com, Angel Reese is 6’3” tall (190,5cm). While she’s just a few inches taller than her rookie nemesis Caitlin Clark, Reese has set the WNBA record for consecutive double-doubles. What’s amazing isn’t just her height, but she’s also slighter than most WNBA frontcourt players at 165lbs. That makes her averaging almost 12 rebounds per game (11.9) along with 14 points per game all the more impressive. You can throw in almost two assists a game on top of that as well.
What WNBA Rebounding Records Has Angel Set?
The rookie is not only setting many rookie rebounding records, but rebounding records in general. Part of the reason Reese received the fifth-most votes in WNBA All-Star Voting. And if she continues to rebound as she has in June and July, Angel Reese will have one of the highest, if not the highest, rebounding averages in the history of the league.
That’s special in of itself, but considering she’s “undersized” makes it all the more impressive. For context, here’s fifteen of the WNBA leading rebounders in the history of the league with their height — from tallest to shortest:
| Player | Height (in) | Cm |
|---|---|---|
| Brittany Griner | 6′ 9″ | 205.7 cm |
| Liz Cambage | 6′ 7″ | 200.6 cm |
| Teaira McCowan | 6' 7" | 200.6 cm |
| Sylvia Fowles | 6' 6" | 198 cm |

Comparatively Reese isn’t even close to being one of the tallest WNBA players of all-time. While Angel is taller than your average WNBA player, you could even consider Angel short when it comes to WNBA bigs. She is certainly shorter than many of the league’s best rebounders as you can see from the above list.
