The Fever close out a three-game homestand with a pair of games on Tuesday and Thursday against the 2020 WNBA champions Seattle Storm. Both games tip at 7 p.m.
Fans came out to Indiana Farmers Coliseum to see a spirited battle between the Sky and Fever on Saturday. For the Fever, Notre Dame alumna Lindsay Allen’s 12 points off the bench set a new career-high for the fourth-year guard. Her six assists set a new season-best and added to her league-leading assist-to-turnover ratio at 29 assists to only five turnovers after Saturday. Teaira McCowan reached the 20-point plateau for the first time since her 22-point effort at New York to open the 2021 regular season. She pulled down 11 of her team-high 13 rebounds in the second half for her 21st career double-double. The third year center battled Candace Parker inside all game, matching Parker’s 20 points.
Seattle comes to Indy riding a three-game winning streak, including the most recent win at Connecticut on Sunday, 89-66. The league’s third leading scorer, Breanna Stewart, had 22 points on 4-of-5 shooting from 3-point range, nine rebounds and five assists to lead Seattle. Sue Bird added 13 points to help Seattle pull away with 14-2 run in the second quarter.
