Indiana Fever’s Mini-Movie After WNBA Cup Championship Brings the Chills originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
The Indiana Fever made history on Tuesday night. For the first time in franchise history, the Fever were able to secure the WNBA Commissioner’s Cup championship with a 74-59 win over the defending champs, the Minnesota Lynx.

Indiana achieved this incredible milestone without their best player, too, as Caitlin Clark sat out with a lingering groin injury. It was a concerted team effort from a shorthanded Fever side, and they were aptly rewarded with their first piece of hardware since winning the WNBA title in 2012.
The team has immortalized this unforgettable night by creating an epic mini-movie that highlights some of the best moments of their championship-clinching win.

Some of the most memorable moments from the video include Indiana’s blistering 18-0 run to close out the first half, Sophie Cunningham’s clutch three deep in the fourth quarter to put the Fever up by 12 points, Clark passionately cheering from the bench the entire time, Natasha Howard’s MVP win and, of course, the champagne-filled postgame celebrations in the locker room.

“America’s team!” posted a fan.
As one of the comments indicated, however, there’s not much time for the Fever to celebrate. They return to action on Thursday as they resume their regular season campaign in a home game against the Las Vegas Aces.
