“I Have That LSU Feeling”: Angel Reese Reflects on the Possibility of a First WNBA Championship

Atlanta Dream forward Angel Reese expressed strong confidence ahead of her squad's opening WNBA Finals contest, comparing the current locker room chemistry to her 2003 collegiate title run with the LSU Tigers. After sweeping both the Washington Mystics and the New York Liberty to reach the championship round undefeated, the roster has relied heavily on strong player connections and veteran leadership.

This cohesion proved vital during their series against the Liberty, where the team managed to rally despite missing regular-season scoring leader Allisha Gray due to a shooting hand injury that limited her to just ten minutes on the court. Veteran teammate DeWanna Bonner stepped up significantly during the series, delivering a 23-point performance while securing nine rebounds and two steals, alongside rallying her teammates with fiery halftime words during Game 1.
