Fever Burn Bright in Fiery Comeback at Connecticut

The Indiana Fever showed that when the heat is on, they’re more than ready to turn up the thermostat. On Sunday afternoon in Uncasville, Indiana erased a 21-point second-half deficit to stun the Connecticut Sun 99-93 in overtime, grabbing their 19th win of the season and keeping their playoff hopes sizzling.

Mitchell’s Masterclass

Kelsey Mitchell put on one of the greatest shooting exhibitions in franchise history, tying her career-high with 38 points — and an astounding 34 of them came after halftime. She single-handedly carried the Fever offense down the stretch, drilling back-to-back triples to open overtime and torching the Sun when the game mattered most.

With the win, the Fever improved to 19-16, notching their 10th road victory of the season and proving they can win in tough environments. Indiana also showed resilience, bouncing back after losing Sophie Cunningham mid-game to a knee injury.

Boston and Company Hold the Paint

Aliyah Boston was her usual powerhouse self, posting another double-double with 14 points and 13 rebounds, including several clutch buckets late. Natasha Howard chipped in 18 points, and Odyssey Sims sparked the offense early with 19 of her own. Lexie Hull added the exclamation point in overtime, sinking a corner three that pushed the Fever to their biggest lead of the night.

Historic Heat

The comeback win snapped a mini-slide and reminded fans of the Fever’s knack for drama. At 19-16, Indiana has won six of its last seven and looks to carry that fire into Friday’s home clash with the Minnesota Lynx.

In short: the Fever proved they’re not just hot — they’re scorching.
