The Liberty have won 13 of their last 15 contests and are riding an eight-game winning streak. They were without Ionescu in the previous two outings but won both by an average of 14.0 points. After the most recent game, coach Brondello noted that Ionescu said she'd be back for this contest, but she's since been listed as questionable. The Liberty have won all three games against the Sun this season, two of which were in Connecticut.
Confirmed Lineup: Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell, Katie Lou Samuelson, NaLyssa Smith, Aliyah Boston

Clark had 19 assists in the Fever's first two games after the Olympic break, and her 8.3 assists per contest lead the league. “If you would have told me I would lead the league in assists coming in here in my rookie season, I probably would have told you you’re lying," Clark said.
The Fever are set to face the Lynx, one of the league's hottest teams. Minnesota has won all four of its games since the season resumed, with each victory being by 11 or more points.
Confirmed Lineup: Courtney Williams, Kayla McBride, Bridget Carleton, Napheesa Collier, Alanna Smith
