That includes Team USA’s Aliyah Boston and Caitlin Clark along with Stephanie White, who will serve as an assistant coach for the Americans. While the championship race remains top of mind for W fans, the World Cup will provide a fascinating late-season diversion. Watching Boston and Clark suit up in the same uniform as league rivals like A’ja Wilson, Paige Bueckers, Angel Reese and Breanna Stewart should make for must-see viewing.  See below for all you need to know about the Fever’s remaining schedule and when to watch Team USA in the meantime.When is the next Fever game?The Fever’s next game after the FIBA Women’s World Cup break is Friday, Sept. 18 at the Toronto Tempo. See all of Indiana’s upcoming games and Team USA’s World Cup schedule below. Indiana Fever schedule 2026Here are the Fever’s remaining regular-season games:DateMatchupTime (ET)WatchFri., Sept. 18at Tempo7:30 p.m.ION, DIRECTVSun., Sept. 20vs. Mystics4 p.m.NBA TV, DIRECTVTues., Sept. 22vs. Lynx8 p.m.ESPN, DIRECTVThurs., Sept. 24at Lynx8 p.m.USA Network, DIRECTVWhen do the WNBA Playoffs start?The 2026 WNBA Playoffs are set to begin on Sunday, Sept. 27.
