Gymnastics legend Simone Biles was in the crowd at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Wednesday night as the Fever defeated the Connecticut Sun 84-80.

Near the baseline stood TV talk show all-timer David Letterman, alongside retired Iowa women’s basketball coach Lisa Bluder. Olympic gold medalist sprinter Gabby Thomas and Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson also took part in the exciting contest.

And there was the familiar large crowd, with 17,274 in attendance.
