Atlanta led by as many as 13 points, but a late comeback saw Indiana tie the game at 95-95 with 3:16 remaining in regulation. Fortunately, a 10-4 run after that allowed the Dream to get enough cushion to prevent a potential collapse.
Following the win, Reese was quick to celebrate. She took to social media to express her delight, writing , "DUBSSS IN THE CHATTTT."

Furthermore, Reese got her second win against Clark as a professional. Entering the game, the Dream star was trailing 5-1 against the Fever playmaker. Reese was also on a four-game losing streak in her head-to-head matchups against Clark, with her last win coming way back 2024 during their rookie seasons.
Clark did impress against the Dream with 26 points and seven assists, but at the end of the day, it was Reese who got the last laugh.
Reese will have another chance to pick up one more win against Clark and the Fever when they meet again on Saturday, this time on Atlanta's home court.
