The Minnesota Lynx visit the Indiana Fever in what promises to be a clash of one of the league’s top teams against an up-and-coming opponent. Minnesota has been dominant for most of the season – at 28–7 they own the best record in the WNBA – but they arrive having hit a small bump. In their latest stretch, the Lynx lost back-to-back games for the first time all year, a sign that even the league leaders are not invincible. Still, those defeats were narrow and Minnesota had won nine straight before this brief stumble.
The Lynx’s formula has been stifling defense and efficient offense, and they remain a powerhouse despite the recent hiccup. They are 17–2 in conference play and have already clinched a top playoff seed. Meanwhile, the Indiana Fever have turned themselves around dramatically after miserable seasons of late. The Fever are at 19–16, right in the mix of things regarding making the playoffs, after coming off some thrilling victorys that have kept them just above .500.
Just last week, Indiana pulled off a magnificent overtime road comeback victory, showing heart and will to win. That win, by which they came from behind to win out of double digits, has given the Fever a sense of momentum. Indiana home fans will be excited, thinking that their team has the potential of facing the league leaders while securing themselves into the postseason.

Our Indiana Fever vs Minnesota Lynx Prediction
This matchup will highlight a contrast in star talent. The Lynx normally revolve around star forward Napheesa Collier, but she has been sidelined recently with an injury. In her absence, veteran guard Kayla McBride has taken on a larger scoring role, averaging around 20 points over the past few games and providing veteran leadership on the perimeter.
Minnesota also boasts a deep roster – players like Jessica Shepard have stepped up, as evidenced by her 15-point, 16-rebound effort in a recent game, and guard Courtney Williams adds experience in clutch moments. For the Fever, everything starts with guard Kelsey Mitchell. The franchise cornerstone is coming off a spectacular 38-point performance in her last outing, a game where she essentially willed Indiana to victory in overtime.
Mitchell’s scoring ability from beyond the arc and off the dribble makes her one of the league’s toughest covers right now. In the frontcourt, 2023 Rookie of the Year Aliyah Boston has been a consistent force for Indiana, tallying double-doubles and anchoring the defense in the paint. Boston’s presence inside will be critical in challenging Minnesota’s forwards.
Minnesota will be favored thanks to their pedigree, but this could be a hard-fought contest. Indiana has the confidence and home support to keep it close, especially if Mitchell stays hot. Ultimately, the Lynx’s depth and defensive discipline might carry them through – expect Minnesota to respond to their mini-slump with a focused performance. The Fever should make them work for it, but the Lynx have the championship mettle to grind out a win on the road. Our prediction for Minnesota Lynx vs Indiana Fever: Over 167.5 points.
