Reese was cryptic with the post she put on social media, drawing attention from fans as Caitlin Clark and the Fever coasted to victory on Monday night
Even though she wasn’t playing Monday night, Angel Reese made plenty of noise following the Indiana Fever’s victory over the Atlanta Dream.
The Fever eked out an 84-79 win over the Dream, fending off a late fourth-quarter rally by Atlanta, which outscored them, 20-14.
Indiana’s star trio of Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell and Aliyah Boston did the job offensively. Mitchell scored a game-high 29 points on 10-of-23 shooting from the field and 3-of-10 from beyond the arc. Clark displayed a balanced stat line of 19 points, seven rebounds and seven assists. Boston finished with a double-double of 14 points and 11 rebounds.
It was a good win for the Fever, who bounced back from a disappointing loss to the Minnesota Lynx, the top team in the Western Conference. The Fever improve to 14-16, staying firmly entrenched in seventh place in the overall standings.
The outcome had more of an effect on the playoff picture for Angel Reese’s Chicago Sky. Chicago entered Monday with a one-half game lead on Atlanta. With the loss, Atlanta fell to 10-19, one full game behind the Sky in the standings for the eighth and final spot in the postseason.
Following the game, Reese immediately took to social media to post a video of herself doing a dance after one of the Chicago Sky’s games with no caption featured.

It is possible Reese may have posted at the most random time possible, and by coincidence, it was right after the Fever game. It could be she is happy with the Dream losing. There is also the idea Reese is preparing herself for the next encounter with Clark and Indiana.
