The Indiana Fever may be in for an interesting night as they visit the Phoenix Mercury in WNBA action tonight, July 9.
The Fever (12-9) and Mercury (8-14) split contentious matchups in Indianapolis on June 22 and 24. A Caitlin Clark-DeWanna Bonner confrontation resulted in five technical fouls in the first game. Phoenix’s Alyssa Thomas placed her fist on Clark’s throat during a loose ball scramble in the second game, prompting a delayed suspension and igniting a national conversation about player treatment.
Kelsey Mitchell (21.9 points, 39.7% 3-pointers), Clark (21.2 points, 8.2 assists) and Aliyah Boston (17.1 points, 8.6 rebounds, 45.1% 3-pointers) lead Indiana, which lost to the Los Angeles Sparks on Wednesday, July 8.
Kahleah Copper (20.8 points) and Thomas (14.2 points, 8.2 assists, 6.9 rebounds) lead the Mercury.
