Indiana Fever defeat Atlanta Dream 95-91 in overtime thriller

The Indiana Fever secured their fourth consecutive victory with a 95-91 overtime win against the Atlanta Dream. Caitlin Clark led the Fever with 26 points and nine assists, while Kelsey Mitchell scored 20 points, extending her streak of 20-plus point games to 19. Makayla Timpson also contributed a career-high 20 points to the comeback.

Atlanta led 72-64 entering the fourth quarter, but Indiana's defense held the Dream to just nine points in the final period of regulation to force overtime. Angel Reese recorded a double-double for Atlanta with 15 points and 14 rebounds, but missed a crucial potential game-winning layup in the closing seconds of regulation.

Following the game, Clark praised the Dream as a “scary” playoff team due to their versatility. The win improves the Fever to a 23-12 record, strengthening their position in the race for home-court advantage in the postseason. Outside of competition, the Caitlin Clark Foundation also announced its new “Turning Pages, Healing Hearts” program, which will provide book vending machines to pediatric hospitals in Indiana and Iowa.
