The Indiana Fever have extended their winning momentum in the 2026 WNBA regular season, securing a 95-91 overtime victory against the Atlanta Dream on Sunday, 16 August 2026. The result improves the Fever’s standing to 22-12 following their 35th game of the campaign.
Caitlin Clark, a former Iowa women’s basketball star, was instrumental in the outcome, contributing 26 points, nine assists, and three rebounds over 40 minutes of play. Her shooting line included nine field goals from 20 attempts, three from three-point range, and five from the free-throw line.
