Kelsey Mitchell’s Record Night Vs Liberty
During the Indiana Fever’s 108-88 victory over the New York Liberty at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, guard Kelsey Mitchell was honored on stage with her individual achievements announced. Teammate Aliyah Boston emoted beside her while Mitchell kept a deadpan expression. “I’m not a stats person,” she deadpanned, later adding that she stays humble because “if you get too high into it, you lose your mind.” She also credited her teammates and the broader organization for her recent success.
Mitchell delivered a 33‑point performance that set multiple franchise milestones. It was her second consecutive 30‑point game and fourth of the season, tying the franchise record for such outings held by Caitlin Clark in 2024 and matched by Mitchell herself in 2025. She now has 128 games with 20+ points, moving ahead of Candace Parker for 12th‑most in WNBA history, and she is on a 10‑game 20+ streak, the fifth longest in the league.
Mitchell’s Scoring Spree
Mitchell’s 33 points not only pushed the Fever to a 108-88 win but also cemented her place as the league’s most dangerous scorer. She now has 606 points on the season, good for eighth‑most in franchise history, and she remains on a franchise‑record 41‑game double‑figure streak. That run, the 20th longest in WNBA history, shows her consistency over a long season.
Fever Team Milestones
The Fever reached 100 points for the tenth time this season, one shy of tying the 2023 Aces for the most 100‑point games in a single year.
Indiana’s second‑half output of 65 points is the highest half‑court total in franchise history, highlighting a dominant second‑half surge.
Off the bench, Myisha Hines-Allen logged a +22 rating in just 14 minutes, becoming the only Fever player ever to post a +20+ rating in under 15 minutes.
Caitlin Clark moved past Tan White for 15th‑most field goals in franchise history, now with 457 makes.
The 20‑point victory was the largest margin for the Fever when trailing by at least 10 points since a 2009 win, and the win leaves the team with 18 games remaining to chase further records.
