Fever vs. Sky Prediction, Spread, Over/Under – Saturday, August 8

Indiana is on the shortlist of teams that contend to win a WNBA title, but it'll have to answer the call in bigger games. Back-to-back losses to Minnesota and Las Vegas, which featured failures to execute down the stretch, were bad signs.

The good news is that most of the weaker teams in the league have seemed out to lunch against a lead scoring trio of G Kelsey Mitchell (24.1 PPG), G Caitlin Clark (21.5 PPG), and C Aliyah Boston (17.0 PPG), who all rank in the league’s top 20.

2026 was always going to be about building for Chicago after it traded F Angel Reese in the offseason. There are some positives, though, such as tG Sydney Taylor (14.7 PPG) being a bucket and C Kamilla Cardoso having 10 double-doubles in an expanded role.

The team is also 7-7 since veteran G Courtney Vandersloot returned from a knee injury and has been organizing the offense.
