INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana Fever led 67-60 heading into the fourth quarter in Sunday’s game at the Atlanta Dream. Indiana held Atlanta to only eight points in the final 10 minutes for a 79-68 win heading into the Olympic break. The eight points scored are the least amount of points scored in a quarter by the Dream this season, and was also the fewest amount of points scored by a Fever opponent in a quarter this season.
This is the first three-game winning streak for the Fever since winning three consecutive games on September 6, September 9 and September 11 in the 2016 season.

The Rutgers Scarlet Knights have sent their fair share of players to the WNBA during the tenure of legendary head coach C. Vivian Stringer. Names like Cappie Pondexter, Sue Wicks and Tammy Sutton-Brown sit alongside Stringer’s in the hall of women’s basketball royalty, while up-and-coming players such as Betnijah Laney and Kahleah Copper currently maintain the program’s pipeline.
Next in line for Rutgers is Arella Guirantes, a 5-foot-11 wing from Bellport, NY. Guirantes who chose not to enter the 2020 WNBA Draft and instead returned to Rutgers for her redshirt senior season has been building upon a breakout 2019-20 season and could very well be among the first players drafted in 2020.
