Fever fall to Lynx, drop to No. 6 playoff seed as Ty Harris, Aliyah Boston exit with injuries
Key Points:
- Indiana Fever guard Tyasha Harris suffered a severe left ankle injury during Thursday's game against the Minnesota Lynx and had to be carried off the court, with the team ruling her out shortly afterward.
- Star center Aliyah Boston also left the game in the second quarter due to a flare-up of a right lower leg injury and did not return for the second half.
- Minnesota defeated Indiana 86-66, holding the Fever to a season-low point total, with Indiana scoring only nine points in the third quarter and star guard Caitlin Clark struggling offensively.
- The loss dropped Indiana to the No. 6 playoff seed, while Minnesota secured the No. 1 overall seed earlier in the week; both teams had already clinched playoff spots.
- Minnesota's Kayla McBride and Natasha Howard led the scoring with 22 and 21 points respectively, while Kelsey Mitchell was the only other player from either team to score in double digits.
