- The Indiana Fever narrowly fell 90-88 at home to the reigning WNBA champions, the New York Liberty, in a tightly contested game on Saturday afternoon at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

- The loss dropped the Fever to 2-2 early in the 2025 season and highlighted ongoing concerns about officiating consistency, though the team looks to rebound in upcoming games.
