The Indiana Fever made a triumphant return to the court following the 2024 WNBA All-Star break, securing a solid 98-89 victory over the Phoenix Mercury on Friday night.
Caitlin Clark (29 points, 10 assists, 5 rebounds, 8/16 FG) and Kelsey Mitchell (28 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 11/22 FG) led the charge, helping the Fever complete their season sweep of the Mercury.
The team’s excitement was palpable as they returned to action after a month-long break, and their energy carried into the locker room, where a celebratory video quickly went viral on social media. The video captures the Fever players reveling in their win, showcasing the tight-knit camaraderie that has developed over the season.

As the season has progressed, the Fever have grown increasingly close, and their on-court performance has improved, resulting in a notable turnaround after a slow start. With five wins in their last eight games, the Fever have solidified their position in the standings, currently holding the seventh seed in the playoff race.
With Clark and Mitchell continuing to dominate, the Fever’s success is becoming more consistent, and if they keep this momentum, we can expect to see more victories—and more viral celebration videos—before the season’s end.
