Las Vegas Aces vs Indiana Fever Starting Lineups and Depth Charts for July 3 | 2025 WNBA Season

The Indiana Fever kick off their five-game homestand on Thursday, hosting the Las Vegas Aces. Coming off a Commissioner’s Cup title win over the Minnesota Lynx, the Caitlin Clark-less Fever will enter the matchup with confidence.

But aside from Tuesday’s victory, Indiana has had a forgettable season. They sit eighth in the standings with an 8-8 record, losing three of their last five games.

While the Fever have been forced to play without Clark in seven contests, the Aces can't use injuries as an excuse for their subpar performance. However, Las Vegas appears to be gaining momentum as of late, winning three of its last four games. A’ja Wilson was simply unguardable during this stretch, averaging 23.3 points and 10.3 rebounds per game.

The teams have faced each other only once during the 2025 season, meeting at the T-Mobile Arena on June 22. The Fever’s trio of Clark, Kelsey Mitchell, and Aliyah Boston combined for 65 points. But despite building a 10-point lead, Indiana couldn't hold on. Wilson’s 24 points and a combined 37 from Chelsea Gray and Jackie Young resulted in the Aces winning 89-81.
