This victory marks Indiana's dominance in the series, having won all three meetings against Toronto this season.

Indiana's scoring allowed average was 91.8, indicating a balanced offensive and defensive approach. Meanwhile, Toronto's defense has been a concern, allowing an average of 94.3 points during the same stretch. The Tempo's record at home stood at 1-2 in their last three games, while the Fever boasted a strong away record of 4-2 in their recent matches.

In their previous encounters this season, the Fever defeated the Tempo 101-95 on August 18 and 113-91 on June 16. These results further highlighted Indiana's superiority in the matchup, and the latest game continued that trend. The Fever's performance was bolstered by key players, including Kelsey Mitchell, who scored crucial points in the fourth quarter, helping to secure the victory.

In terms of injuries, the Tempo faced significant challenges, with four players sidelined: Maria Conde (illness), Marina Mabrey (hip), Aneesah Morrow (knee), and Brittney Sykes (foot). These absences undoubtedly impacted their performance and depth, making it difficult for them to compete effectively against a strong Indiana team.

The betting market reflected the expectations for this game, with DraftKings setting the spread at 15.5 points in favor of the Fever.

Conditions during the game were typical for indoor basketball, with no external weather factors influencing play. Fans were treated to a showcase of talent, particularly in the fourth quarter, where Kelsey Mitchell's scoring burst included a step-back jumper and multiple three-pointers, highlighting her ability to perform under pressure.

As the game concluded, it was clear that the Fever's offensive strategy and execution outmatched the Tempo's efforts. The final score of 103-85 not only reflects Indiana's current form but also underscores the challenges facing Toronto as they look to regroup and improve in the remainder of the season.

What we said beforehand

The upcoming WNBA matchup between the Toronto Tempo and Indiana Fever promises to be an intriguing contest, particularly as the Fever lead the series 2-0 this season. The game is set to take place at the Coca-Cola Coliseum on September 18, 2026, at 23:30 UTC. The Fever, with a strong away record of 26-14, enter this game as significant favorites, with DraftKings listing them at -15.5 on the spread.

Toronto's recent form has been challenging, as they hold a record of 11-29 overall. In their last five games, the Tempo have struggled, managing just one win against the Portland Fire (82-79) while suffering four consecutive losses to the Las Vegas Aces, Seattle Storm, and Phoenix Mercury. During this stretch, they have averaged 76 points scored per game while allowing 90.2 points. Their home record reflects a tough season, with a 1-2 mark in their last three home games and a broader home record of 1-9 in their last ten overall.

In contrast, the Indiana Fever have shown a much more robust performance, especially in their recent outings. They have a record of 7-3 in their last ten games, with a current winning streak of two games. The Fever's most recent victory was a commanding 111-91 win over the Connecticut Sun, and they have averaged 102.4 points scored in their last five games while allowing 95.2 points. Their success on the road has been notable, with a 4-2 record away from home.

In terms of previous meetings this season, the Fever have already defeated the Tempo twice. Their first encounter was on August 18, 2026, where Indiana won 101-95. Earlier in the season, they also faced Toronto on June 16, winning decisively with a score of 113-91. These results indicate a clear advantage for the Fever in head-to-head matchups.

The injury report for the Tempo is concerning, as they will be without key players Maria Conde (illness), Marina Mabrey (hip), Aneesah Morrow (knee), and Brittney Sykes (foot). The absence of these players could significantly impact Toronto's chances, especially considering their already challenging season.

On the Fever's side, they will be looking to Kelsey Mitchell, who leads the team in scoring with an average of 25.0 points per game, and Caitlin Clark, who contributes 8.4 assists per game. The Fever's ability to capitalize on the Tempo's depleted roster will be critical in this matchup.

As for the conditions, the game will take place indoors at the Coca-Cola Coliseum, providing a controlled environment for both teams to compete. Fans can expect a high-paced game, especially from the Fever, who have demonstrated their scoring prowess in recent outings.

Overall, this matchup is significant for both teams, with the Fever looking to extend their dominance over the Tempo and solidify their playoff positioning, while Toronto will aim to end their losing streak and provide a competitive performance at home.
