With the Mystics win over the Comets, the Sky needed to top the best team in the East to keep from moving into last place. It was close, but not enough as Indy won their sixth in a row 75-74.

Tamika Catchings filled up the stat sheet with 22 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals. While Jia Perkins countered with 24 points in 23 minutes for the Sky. "She was able to do what she wanted to at will," Catchings said, "and we're a better defensive team than that."

The Fever remain a game ahead of the Shock and get a chance to go up 2-0 in the season series tomorrow at home.
