The Fever continued to struggle without Tamika Catchings, this time dropping an ugly 60-50 game to the Monarchs. It was the fourth loss in a row. "Tamika's a huge part of what we do,'' said Brian Winters, who expects Catchings to return in a couple of weeks. "When a player of that magnitude gets pulled out of the lineup, it's serious adjustment time.''
Tan White scored 14 off the Bench for Indy, but the team only shot 33% from the floor and turned the ball over 25 times. The Monarchs were even worse from the floor, but got to the free throw line 23 times and connected on 19.
Coming up big for the Monarchs were Rebekkah Brunson and Kristin Haynie. Brunson, playing on a sore leg, had a game high 17 points. Haynie broke out of a season long slump, to add 10 points of the bench. "I told her before the game to be aggressive," said Ticha Penicheiro. "Just play basketball. Sometimes we get too caught up in our mistakes. It affects us and the way we think."
