With WNBA playoffs on horizon, there's a 'different adrenaline' for Indiana Fever
The Indiana Fever restart their season Friday, and they control their own destiny albeit a tough path to guaranteeing hosting in the playoffs.
The Indiana Fever, a WNBA team, have been preparing for the playoffs with a distinct sense of urgency. After participating in the FIBA World Cup with Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston, the Fever returned to the U.S. with a strong sense of determination. Coach Stephanie White, working as an assistant on Kara Lawson's staff, emphasized the importance of maintaining high energy levels despite the physical strain.
As the regular season winds down, the Fever control their destiny in securing a playoff seeding. Currently tied with Atlanta for the fourth spot, the Fever and Atlanta need to win their remaining four games to secure the coveted spot that would grant them a first-round playoff game against Toronto. While the task may seem daunting, especially with a tough final two games against top-seeded Minnesota, the Fever's head coach insists on going into the playoffs with confidence and a sense of accomplishment.
