Dates Set for Fever's Playoff Series Against Las Vegas
The best-of-three series follows the WNBA’s home-road-home format, with Game 2 in Indianapolis and a possible Game 3 back in Las Vegas.
The Indiana Fever begin their WNBA playoff run against the Las Vegas Aces on Sunday, Sept. 27, with tipoff set for 4 p.m. ET at Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas.
Entering the postseason, the Fever hold a 2-1 regular-season advantage over the Aces, though Indiana faces the challenge of overcoming Las Vegas's championship-tested roster and home-court advantage.
The Fever shot 48.5% from the field this season, yet defensive struggles have plagued the team through the final games, forcing Indiana to address execution issues before facing an offensively loaded Aces roster.
Injury concerns cloud Indiana's playoff outlook as center Aliyah Boston and guard Tyasha Harris are listed day-to-day, creating significant rotation uncertainty for the Fever heading into the series.
Following the opener, Game 2 moves to Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis on Tuesday, Sept. 29, with a potential Game 3 returning to Las Vegas on Thursday, Oct. 1, if necessary.
