The Indiana Fever will be hosting the Chicago Sky in an important match that will have ramifications for their playoff pursuit. Time is running out for the Fever with only one spot to grab.

The Golden State Valkyries remarkably booked their playoff spot with a win against the Wings yesterday. This puts further pressure on the Indiana Fever for the Chicago Sky game. They are currently 4-6 in their last 10 games.

Fever are coming into this game after losing against the Phoenix Mercury by 79-85 on Wednesday. Kelsey Mitchell scored 29 points, while Lexie Hull put up 18 points. Alyssa Thomas was the star for the Mercury with 23 points, 9 assists, and 9 rebounds.
