Fever vs. Wings Preview

The Fever and Wings are trending in opposite directions. Indiana has rattled off five straight wins behind the ridiculous production of its star backcourt duo. Dallas, on the other hand, is looking to avoid a third consecutive defeat after losing Azzi Fudd to a season-ending knee injury. The visitors have a clear edge here.

The anchors of the WNBA's highest-scoring offense are borderline unstoppable right now. Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell are averaging 51.1 points per game through seven outings in August. That's no small feat.

Slowing them down will be extremely challenging for a home team that's figuring out how to navigate the rest of the year without Fudd around to solidify its perimeter defense.

Dallas has been outright terrible without Fudd in 2026. The Wings are 1-5 straight up when she's not available this season and averaged just 81.5 points per game in those contests. That mark would make them the league's second-lowest scoring offense.

Paige Bueckers can only do so much as the team's best scorer and playmaker. She's shooting an efficient 50.5% from the field, but lacks a true co-star. Arike Ogumbowale is averaging a career-low 14.9 points per game in yet another down year. Wings role players would likely need to step things up in a big way for the underdogs to stay close in this one.

Fever vs. Wings Prediction

Fudd is linked to the Wings' recent struggles against the spread. Dallas has failed to cover in six consecutive games and is 0-6 against the spread without Fudd this year.

The underdogs will likely enter this matchup with low morale following the latest update on the rookie standout's health, and Indiana asserted its dominance with an 11-point win over Dallas just last week.

The Fever have a strong chance to build on their winning streak, but betting on them to cover gives you more bang for your buck. The hosts don't have an answer for Clark, Mitchell, and Aliyah Boston.

Best Bet: Fever -2.5 (-112, DraftKings)
