Indiana Fever Lean on Boston’s Career Night to Overcome Storm Without Bonner

In Bonner’s absence, the Fever relied on Boston’s career night to move to 7-7.

Overview

  • Aliyah Boston scored a career-high 31 points on 13-of-18 shooting and collected eight rebounds to fuel a decisive third-quarter push in a 94-86 win over Seattle.
  • Kelsey Mitchell added 26 points, including five 3-pointers, to claim sole possession of the WNBA record for games with at least 25 points and five made triples.
  • Caitlin Clark managed six points on 3-of-13 shooting and missed all six of her 3-point attempts, extending her slump to just 1-for-23 from long range over three games.
  • Veteran forward DeWanna Bonner has not played since June 10 and sources report she has no intention of returning to Indiana, with Phoenix and Atlanta listed as preferred landing spots.
  • The victory snapped a two-game skid, evened the Fever’s record at 7-7 and sets up their July 1 Commissioner’s Cup final against the Minnesota Lynx.
