Angel Reese's 2025 tweet 'manifesting the finals' has resurfaced and gone viral after she led the Atlanta Dream to the WNBA Finals. The Dream clinched their spot with a hard-fought victory over the New York Liberty on Friday night, and Reese was the catalyst, dropping a team-high 22 points.
Reese, who was acquired from the Chicago Sky in a blockbuster trade before the 2026 season, has been a force all year. During the regular season, she averaged 16.4 points and 12.1 rebounds per game, but she's elevated her game in the postseason, averaging 18 points per contest.
Back on October 10, 2025, Reese tweeted 'manifesting the finals'—a message that now seems prophetic. After Friday's clinching win, she spoke about the importance of speaking positivity into existence.
“I manifest a lot of things. I think it’s important to speak positive into your life, positive into your team. But this is all God. I’m just so thankful, and I’m blessed to be able to be in this situation. A lot of people wish they were here, and I’m not going to take this moment for granted. I’m here for a reason. We’re all here for a reason,” Reese said.
She added, “It just shows the power of the tongue. Being able to speak things into your life. When you speak positive things in your life, it happens. You manifest big things and big dreams and have those goals and you can do anything you put your mind to.”
The Dream will now face the Golden State Valkyries in the Finals, which begin on October 17. Atlanta swept the Las Vegas Aces in the semifinals, and they'll look to carry that momentum into the championship series.
Reese made it clear that reaching the Finals isn't the end goal. “We’re definitely happy about where we are right now, but we’re not satisfied,” she told reporters.
Her journey this season has been nothing short of remarkable, and the Reese effect on ticket sales has been undeniable. The Dream's decision to trade for her has paid off in more ways than one, and her playoff performances have silenced critics, as seen in her recent on-court antics.
As the Dream prepare for the biggest series of their season, Reese's viral tweet serves as a reminder of the power of belief. Whether it's manifesting a championship or simply staying focused, she's proven that sometimes, all it takes is a little faith.
