Minnesota at Indiana

img8:00 PM Eastern

Minnesota is the better team by a wide margin at 32-10, needing only one more win or one Golden State loss to lock up the No. 1 seed, and that math matters tonight. The Lynx still have two games left against this same Fever team before the regular season ends, so there's no need to play tonight like it's the only one that counts. Indiana, at 27-15, is a different story: the Fever are still fighting for a top-four seed and first-round home court, and they're coming off a 16-point loss to Washington they need to answer. Indiana also leads the league in scoring at nearly 97 points a night, with Caitlin Clark probable after a back issue and Kelsey Mitchell healthy alongside her. I had Connecticut and all those points against this same Minnesota team two nights ago, and the Lynx could only beat a 10-32 club by a dozen, hardly the form of a team about to blow out a motivated home dog. Grabbing Indiana with the points.
