Indiana made a statement on their home court, dismantling Minnesota 96-77 in a game that was effectively over by half-time. The Lynx arrived with the No. 1 playoff seed within reach but found themselves 23 points adrift at the break - and 29 down at the worst point.
Caitlin Clark was at her brilliant best, posting 27 points and nine assists, while backcourt partner Kelsey Mitchell poured in 20 points to continue a stellar season. The duo's chemistry was devastating, leaving Minnesota's defence with no answers.
The absence of star guard Olivia Miles, scratched with a calf injury, disrupted Minnesota's rhythm from the off. Coach Cheryl Reeve pulled her regular starters for the entire second half - a telling admission of how badly things had gone. Napheesa Collier did not mince words afterwards, saying the team should feel embarrassed. Kayla McBride and Courtney Williams also sat out the final 20 minutes.
The two sides meet again on Thursday in Minneapolis, where the Lynx can still clinch the top seed with a victory - or through the result of another game going their way.
