Indiana Fever win preserves chance at No. 4 seed and first‑round home‑court advantage

Caitlin Clark finished with 27 points, nine assists and seven rebounds while Kelsey Mitchell added 20 points as the Indiana Fever defeated the Minnesota Lynx 96-77. Aliyah Boston contributed 17 points and seven rebounds for the Fever. Mitchell extended her league record to 27 straight games with 20 or more points by hitting a 3 with a little more than two minutes left.

The victory kept Indiana’s “faint hopes” of securing the No. 4 seed and first‑round home‑court advantage alive for at least one more day and prevented Minnesota from clinching the top seed until after Golden State plays later Tuesday, per the game report. The article notes Minnesota was missing Olivia Miles and that the Lynx rallied late but could not complete the comeback.
