The Fever, without Caitlin Clark and a number of other key players, pulled off a big upset in the first round of the WNBA playoffs on Thursday night. Indiana, the No. 6 seed, lost the first game of the series but forced a winner-take-all Game 3 back in Atlanta and staged a late comeback to eliminate the No. 3 seed.
The Dream led by five points in the final minutes, but the Fever closed on a 7-0 run. Aliyah Boston scored the go-ahead basket in the final seconds when Odyssey Sims found her down low on a broken play. Under the circumstances, it was a tremendous find and ended up being her team-leading eighth assist of the night.
