Connecticut Sun W vs Indiana Fever W resultado final 88-123 — Jul 23, 2026 | Resultado, box score y estadísticas

Indiana Fever enters this matchup as a heavy favorite against the struggling Connecticut Sun. The Fever sit atop the Eastern Conference at 17-11 with a +4.5 scoring differential, anchored by K. Mitchell's 22.4 ppg and C. Clark's exceptional playmaking (7.2 apg). Indiana's defense, allowing just 89.9 ppg, presents a formidable obstacle for a Connecticut offense that ranks 27th in the league at 80.0 ppg. Connecticut's 8-19 record reflects systemic offensive struggles; while B. Griner provides rebounding stability (5.5 rpg), the Sun lack the perimeter creation and volume scoring needed to match the Fever's efficiency. Indiana's recent form is strong, winning three of the last five games, including dominant victories over New York and Seattle. Connecticut's last two games show volatility—a shocking win over Phoenix followed by a low-scoring loss—suggesting inconsistency that plays into Indiana's hands. The head-to-head history (Indiana 85, Connecticut 75 on June 13) reinforces the gap in quality. Indiana's home-court advantage at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, where they've won 17 of 28, will amplify their control of tempo and offensive rhythm. Connecticut's defense cannot realistically contain Mitchell and Clark in tandem, and with limited offensive firepower, the Sun will struggle to keep pace in a game Indiana should dictate from the opening tip.
