Overview

• Recently signed guard Odyssey Sims scored 21 points, hitting a tying three and the go-ahead layup with 13.6 seconds left against her former team.
• Aliyah Boston posted 22 points, 11 rebounds and a career‑high six steals, securing a pivotal late offensive board and the steal that sealed the win.
• Indiana sits sixth at 21-18 with five games remaining, lowering its magic number to three to clinch a postseason berth.
• Caitlin Clark was ruled out for Sunday’s game at Golden State, marking 18 consecutive absences for a right groin injury; she remains limited to non‑contact work and must complete multiple full‑contact practices before returning.
• The loss left Los Angeles outside the playoff cut and two games back of Golden State for the final spot, while Indiana’s emergency additions, including Aerial Powers (9 points, 6 rebounds), continue to fill key roles.
