NaLyssa Smith’s free throws cut the Fever’s deficit to six points.

After Aces forward Alysha Clark missed a jumper, Fever center Temi Fagbenle grabbed the rebound and the Fever cleared the ball.

When Clark drove into the paint against Aces guard Chelsea Gray, Clark collided with Gray as she went up for a shot to try to draw a foul. Instead, Clark was assessed an offensive foul and was furious. Clark’s Fever teammates had to calm her down to avoid a technical.

The play highlighted a tough shooting night for the rookie. She scored 16 points on 6-for-22 from the floor. She was 1-for-10 from 3-point land. Kelsey Mitchell led Indiana with 24 points.

The Aces won the game 86-75.
