Las Vegas Aces News

Confirmed Lineup: Chelsea Gray, Kelsey Plum, Jackie Young, A'ja Wilson, Kiah Stokes

• Megan Gustafson (illness) — Not on injury report

Gray's progression took an extra step in Las Vegas' Wednesday win over the Storm, as the point guard played 34 minutes in the game, five more than her previous season-best. The Aces are now 8-1 since her return with the league's best Offensive Rating (110.8), Net Rating (+13.8), and true shooting percentage (60.0%) over that span.

Atlanta Dream News

Confirmed Lineup: Haley Jones, Maya Caldwell, Allisha Gray, Naz Hillmon, Tina Charles

• Aerial Powers (calf) — Out

• Rhyne Howard (ankle) — Injured

• Jordin Canada (finger) — Injured

• Laeticia Amihere (international commitment) — Not with team

The Dream are owners of the WNBA's worst active losing steak, having dropped their last five contests. The stretch coincides with Powers' calf injury as Atlanta has gone 0-5 with her out of the lineup. Gray has done her best to step up for the shorthanded Dream, as she's scored at least 19 points in each of those five games. She's tied for seventh in the league in points per game (20.2) over that span.

Phoenix Mercury News

Confirmed Lineup: Kahleah Copper, Sophie Cunningham, Rebecca Allen, Mikiah Herbert Harrigan, Brittney Griner

• Celeste Taylor (signed) — Available to play

• Natasha Cloud (knee) — Out

• Diana Taurasi (leg) — Out

• Sug Sutton (hamstring) — Out

• Charisma Osborne (leg) — Out

The Mercury, conversely, have the league's longest active winning streak at three, but it should be noted that all three of those wins have come against the Sparks and Wings, the teams with the two worst records.

Phoenix has gotten the job done without Taurasi, who will miss her third straight game. Copper has been phenomenal over the three-game winning streak, averaging 30.3 points per appearance, including 32 on Wednesday against Dallas. She now leads the WNBA in 30-point performances this season with seven, one ahead of A'ja Wilson. No other player has more than four.

Indiana Fever News

Confirmed Lineup: Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell, Katie Lou Samuelson, NaLyssa Smith, Aliyah Boston

• Temi Fagbenle (thumb) — Out

While Lexie Hull received a spot start in Indiana's last game, she was seen practicing in a reserve jersey on Thursday, a recent tell that has proven accurate as coach Sides has experimented with the starting lineup. NaLyssa Smith could return to the first five after playing 27 minutes off the bench against Washington on Wednesday.

Minnesota Lynx News

Confirmed Lineup: Courtney Williams, Kayla McBride, Bridget Carleton, Dorka Juhasz, Alanna Smith

• Napheesa Collier (foot) — Out

• Olivia Epoupa (thigh) — Out

Seattle Storm News

Confirmed Lineup: Skylar Diggins-Smith, Jewell Loyd, Jordan Horston, Nneka Ogwumike, Ezi Magbegor
