With the offense humming, the Indiana Fever are poised to climb the standings in the second half of the season, but a stern test awaits tonight against the in-form Golden State Valkyries.
Though Golden State has won seven in a row, Indiana finds a different gear at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, and my Valkyries vs. Fever predictions favor Caitlin Clark and Co. as -125 favorites.

Valkyries vs Fever prediction
Valkyries vs Fever best bet: Fever moneyline (-125)
The league's highest-scoring offense meets its stingiest defense here, and I'm siding with the sweet-shooting Indiana Fever as they host the Golden State Valkyries tonight.
The Fever are fresh off a statement victory over A'ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces on Sunday, powered by a well-balanced attack, and they're 8-4 SU at Gainbridge Fieldhouse this year.
Indiana outlasted Golden State at home in May, and the Valkyries are sweating on Gabby Williams' fitness here. This could be one game too many for the visitors at the end of a long road trip, and I'd lay the small spread too.
COVERS INTEL: The Fever have scored 92+ points in eight of their last 10 outings, reaching the 100-point mark in five of those games, so they have the tools to unlock this Golden State defense.
Valkyries vs Fever same-game parlay
A Fever win likely comes hand-in-hand with a strong shooting night, so I'll pair the Indiana moneyline with the Over, which is 8-2 in the hosts' last 10 games and was a winning ticket in both meetings between these teams in May.
Veronica Burton holds the key to the Valkyries nudging the total towards the Over, and she's dished 12 dimes across her past two contests.
If Williams is ruled out, Burton will have an even bigger role in the Golden State offense, and she willingly dials back her scoring to get her teammates going.
Valkyries vs Fever SGP
- Fever moneyline
- Over 166.5
- Veronica Burton Over 5.5 assists
Valkyries vs Fever player prop pick
Caitin Clark Over 15.5 points (-120)
Caitlin Clark has cleared this O/U points number in all 10 home games this season, and she's averaging 23.4 PPG at Gainbridge Fieldhouse this year. She also nailed the Over in both meetings with the Valkyries back in May.
Clark is shooting 42% from downtown, and she can play off the ball when Kelsey Mitchell is initiating the offense. That's a scenario where even a defense as good as Golden State's has to pick its poison.
