Aliyah Boston and Caitlin Clark record double-doubles, combining for 51 points

INDIANAPOLIS (May 20, 2025) — The Indiana Fever (1-1) suffered a 91-90 loss to the Atlanta Dream (1-1) on Tuesday night at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

After Kelsey Mitchell sunk a driving layup five seconds into the game, Indiana found themselves outshot inside the paint throughout the remainder of the first quarter, trailing Atlanta 23-31. Eleven points from Caitlin Clark in the second quarter pulled Indiana within two heading into the halftime break.

Atlanta’s five three pointers made in the third quarter put the Dream out in front 76-65, but the Fever were quick to respond at the start of the fourth quarter, with Clark and Lexie Hull combining for nine points off three pointers to pull Indiana within four points. Indiana took its second lead of the game with 21 seconds remaining, but a foul on the other end saw Rhyne Howard sink two free throws to retake the lead and, despite a buzzer attempt from Natasha Howard, secured the eventual win for Atlanta.
