What happened: ESPN aired the Fever-Dream game as part of its national broadcast slate, with Angel Reese featured for Atlanta against Indiana. Wendell Carter Jr. was shown watching Reese during the broadcast.

Why it matters: The national window keeps Atlanta and Indiana in front of a wider audience as both franchises push through the second half of the season. Dream front office already stood pat at the trade deadline, betting the current roster over external additions.

What to watch: Continued national coverage will hinge on how both teams perform down the stretch of the regular season.
