With five straight wins, the Indiana Fever continue to move up the standings and they travel to Dallas to take on the slumping Wings at 8pm ET on Thursday night.
Dallas has lost two straight and 8 of 11, dropping from 17-8 to 20-16 and eighth place in the WNBA standings. The Wings hold the last playoff spot, but Portland is now only 4.5 games behind.
Paige Bueckers had 21 points, but turned the ball over 7 times in the Wings’ 78-70 setback at Golden State on Monday. Even worse for Dallas is the season-ending injury to No. 1 overall pick Azzi Fudd. The rookie is an elite shooter and averaged over 13 points per game for her team, but is scheduled to undergo a procedure on her right knee next week, leaving her out for the rest of the year.
Indiana, meanwhile, has won 10 of 12 to move to 24-12 overall, a half-game ahead of defending champion Las Vegas for third place. The Fever have won three straight and seven of eight on the road, including a 101-95 victory over Toronto on Tuesday. Kelsey Mitchell had 29 points, and Caitlin Clark added 24 points and seven assists.
These teams have split their first two meetings of the season. Dallas won a 107-104 thriller at Indiana to open the season, but the Fever defended home court and returned the favor last week, 98-87.
