Fever Reserve Sophie Cunningham Draws Boos at Tempo Game
Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston are probable as Indiana begins a five-game road trip after a 95-91 overtime win over Atlanta.
On Tuesday, the Indiana Fever continued their five-game road trip against the Toronto Tempo at Scotiabank Arena, seeking their fifth consecutive victory while the Tempo aim to snap a 10-game losing streak.
Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston are listed as probable for the Fever, while Tempo defender Brittney Sykes may return from an eight-week layoff after a foot injury sustained in June.
Kelsey Mitchell leads the Fever with 24.2 points per game, while Clark contributes 22.0 points and 8.3 assists; Indiana defeated Toronto 113-91 on June 16 in their earlier meeting.
Fever guard Sophie Cunningham faced boos from the Toronto crowd when checking into the game, reflecting controversy from her ESPN interview regarding transgender women in professional sports.
The game relocated to Scotiabank Arena from the usual Coca-Cola Coliseum to accommodate fan demand. Marina Mabrey said the large crowd is "awesome to see," highlighting the Fever's status as the league's most-watched team.
