The Indiana Fever and the Minnesota Lynx meet again on Friday, but the rematch of the 2025 WNBA Commissioner’s Cup will be missing some All-Stars.
Fever guard Caitlin Clark (right groin) and Lynx forward Napheesa Collier (right ankle) have been ruled out. Clark has been sidelined 13 consecutive game with a right groin injury. Collier has missed six straight games due to a right ankle injury.
The Lynx will be out for revenge after dropping the 2025 WNBA Commissioner’s Cup to the Fever 74-59 on July 1 despite holding a 15-point lead. The Fever, who were without Clark (left groin), held the Lynx to season-lows in points (59) and field-goal percentage (35.7%) to win their first in-season tournament title.
Minnesota (28-7) has already clinched a playoff bid marking their 14th in the past 15 seasons. Indiana (19-16) is in playoff contention, sitting in sixth place in the standings.
The Fever and Lynx will face each other two more times this season after Friday’s matchup. They will meet on Aug. 24 in Minneapolis and on Sept. 9 in Indianapolis.
