Ty Harris earned her second-straight start, finishing the night with 4 points, 5 assists and a +10 plus-minus.

Kelsey Mitchell recorded her 35th consecutive double-digit regular-season scoring game, dating back to August 5, 2025, good for the second-longest of such streak in Indiana Fever history. Mitchell is now two double-digit scoring games from tying Tamika Catchings (37) for the longest streak in franchise history.

With 27 points scored, Mitchell recorded her third consecutive 25+ scoring game, tying a franchise record jointly held by herself (Aug. 17-24, 2025) and Tamika Catchings (Aug. 13-17, 2010)
