They’ve been good without her, however, going 10-9, including a recent five-game winning streak. After a short two-game skid, the Fever got back on track with a decisive 92-70 win over the Chicago Sky. Kelsey Mitchell was fantastic, scoring 26 points to go with eight assists, while Lexie Hull added 17 points and three steals in the win.<\/p>\n The Wings are mired in a five-game losing streak, the last of which was a 91-78 home loss to the Washington Mystics. The Wings held an 11-point lead at halftime before going completely cold, shooting 32.1% from the field in the second half while allowing the Mystics to shoot 80%. Bueckers led the team in scoring with 17 on 5-for-9 from the field.<\/p>\n Indiana has won the first three matchups between the two teams, with Tuesday night’s game being the final meeting of the season.<\/p>\n![\"Paige](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/paige-bueckers-sophie-cunningham.jpg\")
