The Las Vegas Aces vs Indiana Fever game will be played on Friday, July 29 at 7:00 PM ET [Saturday, July 30 at 4:30 AM IST]
The Las Vegas Aces will head to the Hinkle Fieldhouse Arena for a WNBA matchup against the Indiana Fever on July 29. This will be the first game for the Aces since their Commissioner’s Cup triumph against the Chicago Sky.
They will be high on confidence as they have won their last three games. The team’s last encounter in the league was against the LA Sparks, which they won by an 84-66 scoreline. Kelsey Plum starred for them as she scored 29 points and grabbed 5 rebounds on the night. A’ja Wilson also had an impactful game, where she scored 24 points and grabbed 6 rebounds in 32 minutes. Chelsea Gray and Jackie Young chipped in with 10 and 11 points respectively. In the end, their efforts were enough to get the better of the Sparks, who had a dismal run in the second half of the game.
Their opponents for the next matchup are the Indiana Fever, who have lost their last twelve games. The team are already out of contention from the playoffs. However, they will be playing for pride and could still cause a few upsets in the upcoming fixtures. Their latest defeat came against the Dallas Wings, who won by a 96-86 scoreline on Monday. Kelsey Mitchell tried her level best to force the team to a win, but her 34-point effort went in vain. NaLyssa Smith also chipped in with 16 points and 5 boards. Despite all their efforts, the Fever fell short as the Wings were too good on the night. They will be looking to end their twelve-game slump against the Aces. But it is not going to be easy as they are in stellar form at the moment.
Neither team has reported any significant injury problem ahead of this game. If all goes well until tipoff, the coaches will have their best five players start for this encounter.
