The Indiana Fever have made a significant announcement regarding the 2024 WNBA playoffs. With just one regular-season game remaining against the Washington Mystics on Thursday, September 19, the game itself will not impact their playoff status. After their victory over the Dallas Wings on Sunday, the Fever secured the No. 6 seed in the postseason. While the Phoenix Mercury could tie them in the standings, Indiana holds the tiebreaker, having swept the season series. On Monday, the Fever confirmed their playoff position via X and shared that their first-round series will begin on Sunday, with the full schedule to be announced after the regular season concludes.
As the final day of the WNBA regular season approaches for all teams, it’s likely that the Fever will face the Connecticut Sun, who are expected to finish as the third seed. Led by WNBA All-Stars Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell, and Aliyah Boston, Indiana has been on fire since returning from the Olympic break, posting a 9-4 record in their last 13 games.
This playoff berth marks the Fever’s first since 2016, and with their strong second-half performance, they could be poised to make a deep playoff run.
