"Period Ellie, Period, Period," Wilson chanted.
The mascot came to the two-time WNBA MVP and held her hand. The two then started to vibe on the beats playing in the arena. While Ellie was throwing dance moves, Wilson was enjoying the moment from her seat and danced along with Ellie.
Caitlin Clark, sitting beside Wilson, was laughing the entire time after witnessing Wilson's amusing interaction with the mascot.
