This was a closely contested WNBA fixture that turned on the margins. Indiana established a 20-18 first-quarter lead and extended its advantage to 42-37 by half-time, but Las Vegas found a more productive rhythm after the interval.

The Aces limited the Fever to nine points in the third quarter while posting 19 themselves, overturning the five-point deficit to lead 56-51 entering the final period. Indiana responded with a 24-point fourth quarter, forcing overtime at 75-75 and ensuring the 17,274 in attendance had an extra five minutes to settle the result.

Las Vegas edged the overtime period 11-9 to take the result. The Aces did not shoot at their usual efficiency, making 35 of 86 attempts and five of 22 from three-point range, but their ball movement gave them a crucial advantage: 24 assists compared with Indiana’s 16.

Key performers

Wilson was the standout for Las Vegas, pairing a match-high 26 points with 13 rebounds for a double-double. Jackie Young added nine assists, consistently helping the Aces create better looks across regulation and overtime.

Indiana had major contributions of its own. Kelsey Mitchell led all Fever scorers with 28 points, while Aliyah Boston delivered 21 points, 12 rebounds and three steals. Caitlin Clark supplied eight assists, but the Fever could not quite convert their fourth-quarter recovery into a home victory.

NerdSports Stat: Indiana led by five at half-time and rallied from a five-point fourth-quarter deficit to force overtime, yet Las Vegas’ eight-assist advantage across the match proved decisive in a two-point result.

The Aces’ road record improved to an impressive 13-4, and their 22-9 overall mark keeps them firmly in the leading group of the WNBA table. Indiana remain well placed at 19-12 despite the narrow defeat, but will rue a third quarter in which they managed only nine points.
