Angel Reese Trademarks “Mebounds” in Response to Haters

Angel Reese delivered a milestone 11-point, 13-rebound, 11-assist triple-double Monday night, making her the second-youngest WNBA player to achieve one. Despite her impact, critics point out a pattern: many of Reese’s rebounds follow her own missed shots.
Embracing the critique, she filed a trademark application for “Mebounds” on June 14. The term, coined by fans, pokes fun at her rebounding style. Reese even teased on TikTok, thanking the creator and hinting at a future “six‑figure” branding opportunity. The filing covers merch like tees, sweatshirts, and hats.
Reese leads the WNBA with 11.9 rebounds per game—most offensive boards in the league—yet she shoots just around 31% from the field. Her offensive approach continues to spark debate online. Some mock the “mebounds” trend, calling it stat-padding, while others praise her dominance on the glass.
On the court, she’s averaging 10 points and 12.3 rebounds and continues to break records—most recently becoming the fastest Sky player to reach 500 points and rebounds. Off the floor, Reese’s savvy branding adds to her marketability and cultural impact.
