Jonquel Jones, the 94th player in WNBA history to reach 1000 rebounds! Spider is 25 years, 230 days old. She is the 5th youngest to reach 1000. She took 130 games to reach 1000, 11th fastest ever. She's the 1st player from the class of 2016 to reach 1000 rebounds!
She would be the youngest to 2000 if she got there by 11 October 2020. She would be the fastest to 2000 if she got there in her next 66 games.

I apparently missed a few. Thank you, eagle eye posters.
Brittney Sykes tied Diana Taurasi's record of 22 points in a quarter in a game against Phoenix on July 7, 2019.
https://www.nunesmagician.com/2019/7/8/20685942/syracuse-orange-wbb-alum-brittney-sykes-ties-wnba-record
Liz Cambage scored 20 points in the fourth quarter of her record-setting game against the Liberty.

Did I miss anyone else?
