​A week after the Indiana Fever handed the Las Vegas Aces a 16-point defeat on their home floor, the teams meet again under markedly different circumstances. Caitlin Clark and A’ja Wilson both sat out last Sunday’s clash, leaving Kelsey Mitchell to carry Indiana to victory with a 27-point performance. Now that both stars are back in action, the Fever have another chance to make a statement against the league’s top team. The Aces arrive Sunday with momentum, having followed an eight-point win over Portland with a 106-58 blowout of Phoenix on Saturday, the third-largest margin of victory in WNBA history.

First Pick: Las Vegas Aces -4.5 over the Indiana Fever. Rundown: With both teams reuniting their stars, Wilson’s return should have a bigger impact on the Aces than it does for Indiana. Las Vegas is 1-3 without Wilson this season, and its defensive rating drops from 105.3 when she plays to 109.8 when she’s out. Meanwhile, the Fever are surprisingly 4-0 without Clark, but 9-9 with her in the lineup. Indiana has also struggled against high-quality opponents on the road, posting a 5-5 mark away from home, with their best road win outside last week’s win over a Wilson-less Aces squad coming against the 10-10 Washington Mystics. With Las Vegas playing its best basketball of the season, expect Wilson and the Aces to seize control in the rematch and cover the spread.
Second Pick: Las Vegas Aces vs. Indiana Fever – Over 180.5. Rundown: Wilson’s return should give the Aces a defensive boost, but the matchup still projects as a shootout. Indiana and Las Vegas lead the league in offensive rating this season, and each is well-equipped to exploit the opposing defense’s vulnerabilities. The Aces boast the league’s most formidable interior scorer in Wilson, who averages 25.8 points per game and should thrive against Indiana’s interior defense, which has struggled to protect the paint. The Fever, on the other hand, bring an array of shooters and rank among the top five in both three-point percentage and attempts. While the Aces are an above-average defense, their biggest weakness has been perimeter shooting efficiency, making this an expected high-scoring game. Indiana’s firepower and Las Vegas’s scoring pace should push the total over the line as both teams push to assert dominance in this late-season confrontation.
