The Fever recently entered a matchup against the Los Angeles Sparks on a five-game win streak. They wound up losing to the Sparks and followed that with their worst loss of the season, a 95-60 loss to the Phoenix Mercury.
During the matchup against Phoenix, Mercury star Alyssa Thomas made history against the Indiana Fever.
