Fever Burn Bright as Mitchell and Boston Lead the Way Over Sky
Even with their point guard depth chart looking like an injury report, the Indiana Fever continue to bring the heat. Hosting the Chicago Sky in the first matchup of a three-game homestand, Indiana proved that even without a traditional floor general, they can still run the show.
Kelsey Mitchell was the engine of the offense, lighting up the scoreboard for 26 points while also serving as the team’s primary playmaker with eight assists. Her ability to balance scoring and distribution kept the Sky defense guessing all night. Aliyah Boston provided her usual dominance in the paint, delivering 15 points, four rebounds, and three assists, making life in the lane tough for Chicago.
The Fever’s ball movement was crisp, their defensive rotations tight, and their energy contagious. The 92-70 win snapped a brief skid and reminded fans that this team’s playoff push is alive and well. Adding to the backcourt depth, Indiana signed veteran guard Odyssey Sims to a hardship contract. With 11 WNBA seasons under her belt and a résumé that includes an All-Star nod, Sims brings instant experience and leadership for the Fever’s stretch run.
Indiana now looks to keep the momentum rolling, proving that even in the face of adversity, they’ve still got plenty of fuel left in the tank.
