Pistons fans got in one final dig at the Magic as their side blew out Orlando in Game 7 of the first round of the NBA playoffs, specifically getting a shot in at Magic big man Wendell Carter Jr.
At one point during the 116-94 Pistons win on Sunday, fans inside Little Caesars Arena broke out into a chant of “Angel Reese!”
The backstory is very reality TV-esque.
Carter is currently dating the WNBA star, and the two were first romantically linked last May.
But before she dated the Magic center, she had been dating Jalen Duren, who plays for the Pistons — adding an extra layer of spice to the first round series between Detroit and Orlando.
As if that wasn’t enough, Reese then got in on the chirping, taking to social media late last month to share a highlight on her Instagram Story of Carter, her current beau, slam dunking on Duren, her ex.
It’s clear that Duren and the Pistons got the last laugh in the end, taking the best-of-seven series at home, and Duren finished the game with 15 points and 15 rebounds.
Going into Game 7, Duren had averaged 9.8 points per game while shooting 52.3 percent from the field and averaging 8.5 rebounds during the postseason.
