Stewart, Fiebich Power Liberty Past Clinched Fever in 109-102 Thriller

The Indiana Fever couldn’t complete the comeback in Brooklyn on Saturday night, dropping a 109-102 decision to the New York Liberty at Barclays Center in the fourth and final regular-season meeting between the two clubs. This is Indiana’s second straight loss for their 5 game road trip, but it did little to dampen the bigger picture: the Fever are already a lock for the 2026 WNBA playoffs, and every game left on the schedule is now about seeding rather than survival.

New York controlled most of the night behind a balanced, healthy attack — something the Liberty hadn’t had in weeks. Jonquel Jones got going early despite a banged-up ankle, scoring 17 points and grabbing seven rebounds in the first half alone as New York built a 53-49 lead at the break. The Liberty tried pulled away in the third quarter when Sabrina Ionescu and returning forward Leonie Fiebich combined for 19 of the team’s 31 points in the period, stretching the lead to 85-78 heading into the fourth.

Indiana didn’t go quietly. The Fever clawed back to tie the game at 100 late, powered by a Kelsey Mitchell three-pointer, before New York closed the door at the free-throw line and on a tough Fiebich bucket through contact with under a minute remaining. A missed Caitlin Clark layup on the ensuing possession sealed New York’s win.

The result moves the Liberty to 23-15 on the season, while the Fever slip to 24-14.

The win extended Indiana’s (23–12) lead over Atlanta (21–13) to 1½ games, evened the season series at 2–2, and denied the Dream a head-to-head tiebreaker with ten regular-season games remaining.

The Dream stretched the lead to eight in the third quarter before Indiana’s defense clamped down, holding Atlanta to nine points in the fourth as the Fever clawed back to tie it.

Atlanta briefly grabbed the lead in overtime, but Indiana answered with a decisive run. Makayla Timpson was the story of the extra period, repeatedly scoring in the paint on her way to a career-high 20 points. Aliyah Boston added a double-double game, and the Fever pushed the lead out before Atlanta cut it to 93-91 in the final seconds.

The Indiana Fever secured a milestone 84-68 victory over the Las Vegas Aces on Sunday night, marking their first-ever franchise win against the Aces in Las Vegas.

Clark and Mitchell Fuel Fever Past Mercury (86 – 77)

This was Indiana’s first game of their three-game homestand and the Fever staged a remarkable comeback to defeat the Phoenix Mercury 86-77 in a highly charged matchup at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

The game began as an absolute disaster for Indiana. The Fever endured a historically abysmal first quarter, scoring just six points—tied for the fourth-fewest in franchise history. Phoenix capitalized on the cold stretch, racing out to an early 16-point advantage behind sharp execution.

However, the tide turned dramatically thanks to Indiana’s explosive core. Led by Caitlin Clark, who anchored the offense with 24 points, with 3 make three-points, and 9 assists, the Fever completely flipped the script. Alongside Clark, Kelsey Mitchell provided a crucial scoring punch with 22 points, while Aliyah Boston anchored the interior with 8 points, 9 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block. This high-powered performance completely erased the early deficit and it was tied at 41 entering the second half.

The intensity reached a boiling point in a chaotic fourth quarter. A physical, drawn-out final period erupted into a chippy scuffle that saw six technical fouls handed out between the two teams. Tensions flared so high that Indiana’s Myisha Hines-Allen was ejected after picking up her second technical foul. Ultimately, the Fever weathered the storm, proving their resilience after a rocky start.

Both team don’t have to wait long for a rematch, since they’ll face again this Wednesday night.

Turnover Troubles and Third-Quarter Collapse Cost Fever Against Atlanta (113 – 96)

The game started as a high-octane offensive shootout, with the Indiana Fever putting together a historic first half. Driven by Caitlin Clark’s hot hand early, Indiana opened the game shooting a perfect 8-for-8, racking up 37 points in the opening frame—the third-most in a single quarter in franchise history. Backed by Kelsey Mitchell’s 16 first-half points, the Fever held a narrow 59-56 lead at intermission.

Then came the third quarter, and everything went wrong for Indiana. Heavy whistle trouble combined with a wave of sloppy play completely sapped the Fever’s offensive rhythm. Indiana gave away the ball 19 times throughout the afternoon, with Clark committing seven of those turnovers herself. Atlanta capitalized on the mistakes immediately, suffocating the Fever with a 28-15 third-quarter surge to pull ahead 84-74.

By the time the fourth quarter rolled around, the Dream comfortably enjoyed that 10-point cushion. Indiana had no answers left in the tank, allowing Atlanta’s lead to balloon to as much as 22 points before settling at a final 113-96 blowout victory.

Statistically, the Fever were led by Clark’s 26 points and 7 assists, while Mitchell finished with 16 points and Aliyah Boston chipped in 13 points and seven defensive rebounds, a milestone that pushed her past 800 career defensive boards. However, the afternoon belonged to Atlanta. Rhyne Howard paced the Dream with 24 points, while Jordin Canada orchestrated the offense beautifully with 12 points and 12 assists, scoring eight critical points in the defining third quarter without committing a single turnover. Angel Reese also entered the history books during the contest, scoring 18 points and grabbing eight rebounds to become the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 1,000 career rebounds, achieving the feat in just 79 games. Backed by massive bench performances from Allisha Gray with 22 points and Naz Hillmon with 19, Atlanta coasted to a franchise-record 113 points.

Indiana Fever Extend Winning Streak With 22-Point Rout of the Toronto Tempo (113 – 91)

Indiana Fever dominated the Toronto Tempo 113–91 on Tuesday night at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, extending their winning streak to four games and improving their record to 9-5. The convincing victory, fueled by a balanced offensive attack and standout individual performances, also set a franchise record for the most points scored in a regulation game.

Kelsey Mitchell led all scorers with a team-high 27 points on a blistering 9-of-11 from the field, making her the game’s top performer. But the night’s most electric display came from Sophie Cunningham, who torched Toronto from beyond the arc, drilling 6-of-7 three-point attempts for a season-high 24 points on a near-perfect shooting night.

Caitlin Clark once again orchestrated the Fever offense with precision, posting a stellar double-double of 21 points and a season-high 14 assists, constantly breaking down the Tempo defense to find open teammates and reinforcing her status as one of the league’s premier playmakers. Aliyah Boston rounded out Indiana’s dominant performance with an efficient 18 points and 11 rebounds.

The Fever shot 52.2% from the field and outrebounded Toronto 54–32, completely overwhelming the Tempo in the second half and outscoring them 60–41. Indiana led by as many as 24 points, turning the game into a showcase of their depth and execution.
