Minnesota has a lot of ballers. That was pretty intense at the end.

Oh, I saw it. Definitely a foul that wasn’t called. But I can see why the broadcast team didn’t dwell on it.

Here it is.

Definitely. They are far and away the best team in the league, as their record (25-6) indicates. Not unbeatable, but really good.

Minnesota 108 Indiana 100

Kelsey Mitchell leads all scorers with 37.

Fever cut a 15 point lead down to 1 late in the fourth quarter but ran out of gas at the end of a long west coast road trip.

Indiana starts a 4 game home stand on Thursday against Las Vegas.

Misspoke. 3 of the next 4 at home. LV, at Chicago, NY, Dallas.

Vegas 86 Indiana 84 (OT)

Completely frustrating game to watch. Fever had a 20 point lead in the second quarter until the Aces' Jackie Young went on a 14-0 run to end the quarter to pull Vegas back into it.

Chelsey Gray hits a game tying 3 at the buzzer to send it to OT, then hits a game winning 3 at the buzzer in the OT.

Kelsey Mitchell led all scorers with 28.

Learn and move on.

Indiana 90 Chicago 86

Caitlin Clark scores 26 and dishes out 11 assists as the Fever get back on the winning track.

Kelsey Mitchell leads all scorers with 27. She has score 20+ in 16 straight games, a single season record (A'ja Wilson scored 20+ in 20 consecutive games over 2 seasons)

Clark did pick up a Tech for bumping an official. It would be her 8th and result in her being suspended from Tuesday's game. She was driving for a layup and the shot was blocked. The contact resulting from the play pushed her along the baseline and her momentum took her along the baseline and into the ref. It was a bogus call and the WNBA has already reviewed and rescinded the Technical Foul, so Clark will be in the lineup Tuesday vs the NY Liberty.

Wasn't a blocked shot, just bumped while driving to the basket and knocked her off course just enough to drive her out of bounds.

Indiana 106 New York 92

Kelsey Mitchell leads all scorers with 28. Caitlin Clark with 22 and 10 assists.

15th time the Fever have topped the century mark this season, a WNBA record.

Breanna Stewart and Sabrina Ionescu both had 19 for the Liberty.

Up next, the Dallas Wings on Friday. My daughter and I will be in attendance.

Wonderful!

From last night:

Indiana 98 Dallas 87

Caitlin Clark scores 29 and has 10 assists to lead the Fever to the win. Kelsey Mitchell adds 23 for her 17th straight game of 20+ points.

There was about a 2 minute stretch in the 3rd quarter where Clark and Paige Bueckers were trading buckets, and it was as exciting as basketball gets.

Bueckers led Dallas with 29 points.

Up next, at Atlanta tomorrow.

How was the experience @Tranquility Base?

It was a lot of fun. Game was great. Getting to the the arena and to your seat is extremely easy (yet somehow there is always that group of people at every sporting event that are utterly confused when it comes to locating there sections and seats.)

Concessions are reasonable for a sporting event. We got chicken tenders with fries, burger with fries, a souvenier cup soda and a gatorade for less than $45. Not cheap, but compared to a Reds or Bengals game, not bad.

Getting out of the arena was a little chaotic, but as long as you make a plan and stick to it, it's pretty painless.

Parking is outstanding, as we prepaid for a spot in the garage that has a tunnel that attaches to the arena, so getting from the car to the game and back is a breeze.

Overall, the Indiana Fever game experience is well worth the money.

I need to make a trip up for a Pacers game. Haven't seen them since they were still playing in Market Square.
