The No. 7 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft out of LSU, who went on to become a WNBA All-Star in her rookie season, has been relentlessly mocked on social media for missing shots on offense but racking up rebounds off of those aforementioned missed shots.
The phrase was coined by Bhen of Jeff Teague's "Club 520 Podcast" but has since been trademarked by Reese, who on Friday revealed that she is now selling "Mebounds" merchandise.
The product line includes items such as hats, slides, beanies, hoodies and T-shirts, and as revealed by the Chicago Sun-Times, some of the proceeds will be going toward cyberbullying prevention.
As seen on her website, the shirts come in a variety of colors and styles and even have different graphics on the front. The oversized T-shirt, which features the phrases "Mebounds" and "Anything That Comes Off That Board, It's Mine," also has a silhouette of Reese grabbing a rebound.

While it's unclear how much of the proceeds are going toward the cyberbullying prevention cause, Reese did open up on how difficult it is to be attacked online frequently.

'We take social media lightly,' Reese said to the Chicago Sun Times. 'And people always say, 'Block the noise, block this, block that.' But it's not that easy.'
Reese also confirmed that she made "six figures" in one day off the phrase.
As for her on-court performance this year, Reese is averaging 11.7 points and 12.3 rebounds per game while shooting 39.1% from the field and 30.8% from deep. She and the Sky (4-11) will be taking on the Los Angeles Sparks (5-11) on Sunday in a game that will tip at 4 p.m. ET and air on ESPN.

How to watch X Games Salt Lake City Day 3: Best trick showcase in grand finale
Sunday highlights the highest risks and best tricks as the 30th anniversary X Games come to a close in Salt Lake City. It is a day reserved for the most consequential contests, in which a single run can redefine an athlete's legacy. It's also a day of fan favorites. Betting remains active, and with stunts this dicey, the odds can shift before the wheels touch down. Advertisement An all-day digital livestream of Sunday's events can be found on the Roku Sports Channel. Women's Skateboard Street Best Trick opens the day. Chloe Covell is just 15, but she's already the rider to beat as the owner of four X Games gold medals. Her lines are crisp, fast and technically advanced. She faces a deep field of teenage talent, pushing the ceiling higher with each appearance. The lineup continues with Men's Skateboard Vert Best Trick, BMX Dirt Best Trick, Men's Skateboard Street Best Trick and Moto X QuarterPipe High Air. Colby Raha enters as the favorite in the latter — he's won four titles and continues to hit heights once thought impossible. But new challengers are closing in, and a single slip can change the standings. In the Men's Skateboard Vert Best Trick final, Gui Khury is within reach of another gold. The 16-year-old claimed his eighth X Games gold, the most ever for a teenager, when he won the Men's Skateboard Vert competition on Friday. Vert is the sport's root system, where style, control and innovation collide. Finally, after Women's BMX Park, the Dave Mirra BMX Park Best Trick closes the weekend. Kevin Peraza returns to chase a sixth medal in the event that honors Mirra's legacy. Expect big air and creative lines that nod to BMX history while pushing the boundaries of what's possible.
