Overview
- Indiana routed Washington 94-65 in Baltimore to secure a second straight postseason, with Natasha Howard scoring 17 and Aliyah Boston adding 12 points and 11 rebounds.
- Caitlin Clark confirmed Thursday she is out for the season with a right groin injury, part of a rash of five season-ending losses that forced the Fever to retool the roster.
- Golden State sold out all 22 home games to set WNBA single-season attendance records at 18,064 per game and 397,408 total in their inaugural, playoff-bound campaign.
- Minnesota, already locked into the No. 1 seed, beat Golden State 78-72 on Saturday behind Natisha Hiedeman’s 24 points, denying the Valkyries a win on their record-setting night.
- Golden State sits sixth and needs one more win to secure that seed, faces Seattle on Tuesday and Minnesota on Thursday, and will shift its home Game 2 to San Jose’s SAP Center due to a Chase Center conflict.
