WNBA Windex (TM) Women

Gee, I can't figure out why the Fever wants her.

If you're unfamiliar with Windex, it's a liquid used to clean glass. Another way to clean the glass is to get an offensive rebound. Dick Vitale created the famous All-Windex Team, honoring the best offensive rebounders of college basketball, and the expression stuck.

So who is the best in the WNBA at getting the offensive board? There are two ways to look at the problem: persistence and effectiveness, as well as a combined metric that looks at total offensive rebounds multiplied by offensive rebound percentage - rewarding players for both.

All names in bold font are active players.
