I was out of the weekend and just catching up on everything WNBA and everyone’s favorite/hated team the Indiana Fever will advance to the semis of the 2025 WNBA Playoffs and will face the Las Vegas Aces.
Both team needed 3 games in order to advance to the next round. Indiana Fever won two in a row; one at home and a nail-bitter on the road (87 – 85). Game 3 against the Atlanta Dream was a close game, and it wasn’t decided until the final 17 seconds.

Despite missing Caitlin Clark among its injured players, Indiana closed on a 7-0 run to win a playoff series for the first time since 2015. The sixth-seeded Fever will play on Sunday against the winner of Thursday’s other Game 3 between Seattle and Las Vegas.
Boston was left alone under the basket for an easy layup after Brionna Jones went to the ground going for a loose ball. It gave Indiana an 86-85 lead, its first since it was 33-30 in the second quarter.
Rhyne Howard twice had trouble inbounding the ball in the final seconds, with Hull coming from behind to poke it away from Jones. Indiana got it to Odyssey Sims, who went 1 of 2 at the free-throw line to give Atlanta another shot with 1.2 left. Jones’ off-balance 3-pointer at the buzzer was off the mark.
Here’s the Game 3 Highlights
As for the Las Vegas Aces, they needed an MVP-worthy performance from A’ja Wilson just to squeak out a win against the Seattle Storm. Wilson scored a game-high 38 points and 5 rebounds. In the series against the Storm, A’ja Wilson is averaging 29.33 points, on a 55.4% field goal. She is also averaging 8.7 rebounds with 2.3 steals and 2.0 blocks.
