Sophie Cunningham says Indiana will keep its system but alter two offensive sets to look beyond their first action and make Las Vegas adjust. The sixth-seeded Fever open against the third-seeded Aces in Las Vegas on Sept. 27.
Indiana won two of the teams’ three regular-season meetings: 84-68 on July 5 and 109-75 a week later. Las Vegas won the other, 86-84 in overtime.
Aliyah Boston left Indiana’s final regular-season game against Minnesota after a flare-up of a previous lower-leg injury. Coach Stephanie White said the exit was precautionary. Boston is the Fever’s primary defensive anchor and leads the team in steals, blocks and rebounds.
