​As Indiana (13-9) closes out a four-game road swing, the Fever head to Michelob ULTRA Arena to face the Las Vegas Aces (17-6) for the second time in the past week. The matchup pits Indiana against a high-flying Aces squad right after a grueling road trip, with tip-off scheduled for Sunday night.
Even though she did not suit up for Indiana’s narrow 92-89 win over the Phoenix Mercury on Thursday, Caitlin Clark, the former Iowa star, is anticipated to be in the lineup for Las Vegas tonight. Her minutes will be managed, with a 20- to 25-minute restriction in place, according to Fever head coach Stephanie White. White also indicated that Indiana will not employ the same three-minute burst strategy used during Clark’s Wednesday return against the Los Angeles Sparks, a plan that failed to yield the desired effect on the floor.
Las Vegas, meanwhile, arrives riding the wave of its most lopsided victory in franchise history: a 106-58 rout of the Mercury on Saturday. That dominant performance featured Justine Pissott, a 2026 second-round pick for the Fever, tying a WNBA record with five made three-pointers in her debut and contributing 19 points. The Aces will look to extend that momentum against a Fever squad hoping to stymie Clark and slow Las Vegas’ cohesive attack.
As the two teams prepare for game night, fans can expect live scoring updates and highlights centered on Caitlin Clark’s performance and Indiana’s approach to countering Vegas’ dynamic lineup. The game is set for Sunday, July 12, at 8 p.m. Central Time, with NBC as the national TV home and a live Peacock stream for those wishing to watch the action from elsewhere. The Indiana Fever vs. Las Vegas Aces matchup will also be covered with ongoing local insights and analysis as the season progresses.
