Angel Reese says she ‘manifested’ her first WNBA Finals appearance after knocking off Liberty

Angel Reese and the Atlanta Dream advanced to the WNBA Finals for the first time since 2013 after defeating the New York Liberty 85-83, completing a three-game sweep. Reese led her team with 22 points and nine rebounds, scoring 18 points in the first half. Following the victory, Reese noted she had "manifested" this moment in a social media post exactly one year prior. The Dream, playing without injured starter Allisha Gray, will face the Golden State Valkyries in a best-of-seven championship series beginning October 17. The win marks a significant milestone for Reese, who was traded to Atlanta in the offseason after two seasons with the Chicago Sky.
