A social media influencer took his best shot at garnering Angel Reese’s attention during the WNBA Finals – and it nearly worked.
Tiki, a content creator with more than 479,000 followers on TikTok alone, wore a tuxedo and brought a sign with him to Game 3 between the Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries. As Reese was at the foul line, he yelled, “Angel, I love you.”

Tiki’s sign read, “Angel will you marry me?”
You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take, which is a completely true statement. But when shooting your shot at the 2026 WNBA Defensive Player of the Year and an athlete who is averaging nearly a block per game, it has to be the right shot.
Unfortunately, for Tiki, he was blocked.

Reese commented on Tiki’s video, saying, “Not in this lifetime, but I have some fine friendsssss.”
Tough look.
The Dream were in the midst of a competitive series, having stolen one game on the road against the Valkyries. The two teams fought hard in Games 3 and 4. Golden State defeated Atlanta on Saturday 67-62 to even the series at two games apiece.
Reese played well in the first two games, even scoring 30 points and grabbing 16 boards in a Game 2 win. However, in Game 4, Reese was 2-of-12 from the field and finished with only eight points and nine rebounds.
Game 5 between the two teams is set for Monday night back in California.
