Makayla Timpson scored a career-high 20 points, including Indiana's first three field goals in overtime, and the Fever beat the Atlanta Dream 95-91 on Sunday to protect their hold on fourth place in the WNBA standings. Kelsey Mitchell's layup with 13.6 seconds remaining in overtime gave the Indiana guard 20 points, her 19th consecutive game scoring at least 20. Caitlin Clark scored 26 points, including two free throws after Atlanta trimmed Indiana's lead to 93-91, with nine assists.

Dropping a game to the league-leading Minnesota Lynx is not enough to spark frustrations for Las Vegas Aces coach Becky Hammon just yet. Her team has now recorded its 12th loss of the season, just two shy of its total regular-season losses last year.

A'ja Wilson scored 32 points for the Aces, but only got 12 from Chelsea Gray and 8 from Jackie Young.

WNBA legend Candace Parker looks forward to seeing Aces star A'ja Wilson carry on her legacy as a current superstar in the league.

Minnesota continued its dominant season with another statement win over Las Vegas, but several difficult tests remain on the schedule.

Sonia Citron scored 21 points, Shakira Austin had 17 points and 11 rebounds, and the Washington Mystics rallied in the fourth quarter to defeat the Los Angeles Sparks 80-70 on Saturday night. Kiki Iriafen added 19 points and eight rebounds for Washington (20-14), which was coming off two straight losses at Las Vegas. Austin's layup with six minutes left in the fourth quarter gave Washington a 65-64 lead, its first advantage since it was 41-39 at halftime.

During a highly physical Indiana Fever matchup against A’ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces, the officials called a defensive blocking foul, judging that the defender made body contact against Wilson using her hip while sliding laterally rather than establishing a completely legal guarding position.
