Indiana vs. Chicago – WNBA Game Preview, Prediction and Player Props
Spread: Indiana -2.0 | Total: 165.0
Indiana Fever Breakdown
The Indiana Fever (3-4) come into Saturday’s matchup slightly favored despite a banged-up roster. Star rookie Caitlin Clark remains sidelined with a quad injury, and the team has also been dealing with health issues to Sophie Cunningham and Sydney Colson. The good news? Colson returned for their latest win over Washington, and Kelsey Mitchell has stepped up in a big way. Mitchell poured in 24 points and continues to be the team’s most reliable offensive weapon.
Emergency addition Aari McDonald made an immediate impact with seven points, five assists, and three steals in her Fever debut, proving she can deliver on short notice. The chemistry is building despite adversity, and Indiana will look to lean on its speed and perimeter scoring against a rebuilding Sky squad.
Player Prop Pick (Fever): Kelsey Mitchell Over 18.5 Points – She’s the primary option and has cleared this number in back-to-back games.
Chicago Sky Breakdown
The Chicago Sky (2-4) are fresh off a well-earned break after back-to-back wins over Dallas that gave them momentum for the first time this season. Rookie Kamilla Cardoso is listed as day-to-day with shoulder soreness but is expected to suit up. Meanwhile, Ariel Atkins has been the heartbeat of this Sky squad, recently scoring a season-high 26 points while embracing her new leadership role.
Chicago was steamrolled by Indiana in the season opener without much resistance, but that was with Caitlin Clark on the floor. Angel Reese’s interior presence will be crucial again after grabbing 17 boards in that previous matchup. The Sky need better execution in the halfcourt and a cleaner start defensively to flip the script this time.
Player Prop Pick (Sky): Angel Reese Over 10.5 Rebounds – She’s already dominated the glass vs. Indiana and continues to be a double-double machine.
Expert Prediction
With Clark out, the talent gap narrows, but Indiana’s momentum and depth give them the edge. Back the Fever to cover in a close one, with a final score prediction of Indiana 84, Chicago 78.
