The Indiana Fever (13-15) have struggled to find consistency this season, but they continue to show glimpses of promise with their young core. Aliyah Boston has been a standout player for Indiana, grabbing a strong 9 rebounds per game, while dropping in 14 points. Her ability to score efficiently and protect the rim has given the Fever a foundation to build around. As always, Caitlin Clark remains the main draw for the Fever. The rookie has been sensational, racking up 17.8 points per game.

The Minnesota Lynx (20-8) are hitting their stride, and leading the Western Conference. Led by the dynamic duo of Napheesa Collier and Kayla McBride, the Lynx have been playing inspired basketball, climbing the standings in recent weeks. Collier’s all-around game has been key, as she leads the team in scoring, rebounding, and defensive impact. Meanwhile, McBride’s incredible 42% three point percentage, and veteran leadership have added stability to Minnesota’s offense.

The Fever are certainly an exciting team to watch, and they may be catching Minnesota at the right time. The Fever are well rested, while Minnesota is playing their third game in four days. Minnesota will need defensive energy to contain Clark and the Fever, and their legs may not be there. We like the Fever. Prediction: Indiana wins 82-77.
