Phoenix Mercury (8-14) will look to bounce back to winning ways when they host Indiana Fever (12-9) on Thursday night at PHX Arena. The Mercury saw their three-game winning run come to an end on Wednesday after losing 66-77 to the Sky at home. They did little to help Kahleah Copper, who got 24 points and four rebounds. They’ll want to pick a statement win tonight to protect their newfound mental toughness.
Indiana Fever, meanwhile, have been inconsistent lately despite sitting just 0.5 games behind the Liberty at the top of the East. After defeating the Sparks and the Aces in a comfortable fashion, the Fever dropped their guard on Wednesday night, losing 106-92 to the Sparks. Even the return of Caitlin Clark wasn’t enough to save them from defeat, with the superstar forward contributing nine points and four rebounds. We expect her to make more contributions tonight.

Our Phoenix Mercury vs Indiana Fever Prediction
The Fever are undoubtedly the stronger and more consistent side in this contest. We expect them to be more ruthless in offense tonight after Caitlin Clark returned from injury against the Sparks. Kelsey Mitchell is also having a strong campaign. She’s their top scorer this season, contributing a team-high of 29 points against the Sparks. However, their defensive struggles have been well documented in 2026, meaning the hosts might stand a chance if they limit Indiana’s scoring opportunities. The visitors have given up an average of 88.9 points per contest, which is only good for 12th. For this reason, we expect a close contest, though Indiana’s highly efficient offense should help them see the game out.
Our prediction for Phoenix Mercury vs Indiana Fever: Indiana Fever on the +4.5 line.
