Portland in June, the team captured the Commissioner’s Cup and finished 7–4 for the month.
They lead the league in scoring at 83.4 ppg and shoot 46.2% from the field (2nd in WNBA).
Key Players:
Aliyah Boston: Elite frontcourt force, averaging ~16 ppg, 8+ rpg, shooting nearly .59 FG%, and recently posted 31 points in a win.
Kelsey Mitchell: Scoring ~18.5 ppg, came off a 32‑point hot streak.
Caitlin Clark: Leads the Fever with 19.9 ppg, tops WNBA with 3.1 made threes per game—but currently hampered by a groin injury and was out as of July 1.

Matchup to Watch
Wilson vs. Boston: Dominant size-versus-size duel—Wilson’s MVP-caliber interior dominance against Boston’s elite efficiency and rebounding.
Perimeter Showdown: Indiana’s elite 3-point suppression (27.5%) will test Las Vegas’s drought-prone backcourt. If Gray, Young, and Loyd heat up, it’ll open the paint for Wilson & co..
Impact of Clark: With her sidelined, Indiana relies more on Boston and Mitchell to carry the scoring, while the Aces will look to exploit the diminished playmaker on the floor.
