What were the odds of Indiana Fever comeback win at Atlanta Dream? From improbable to certainty
It was quite the shift on the chart over the last 152 seconds, one that turned in the Fever's favor at the Atlanta Dream.
The Indiana Fever's remarkable season will continue after eliminating the Atlanta Dream in stunning fashion on Thursday with an 87-85 win in the deciding Game 3 of their first-round series. Aliyah Boston's go-ahead bucket with 7.4 seconds remaining proved to be the difference and sent the Fever to the semifinals for the first time since 2015.

Boston has go-ahead basket with 7.4 seconds left as Fever beat Dream 87-85 to reach WNBA semifinals
The No. 6-seed Indiana Fever closed on a 7-0 run and toppled the No. 3 seed Atlanta Dream despite being without Caitlin Clark to clinch Indiana's first playoff series win since 2015.
All nine experts interviewed by ESPN had the Dream winning, with eight predicting a two-game sweep and only one expecting the series to go to Game 3. The Fever kept their message direct and simple, noting, “Now You Know.” For those unaware, the line is also the Fever’s slogan for the 2025 season.
The best-of-three first round will wrap up Friday or and the best-of-five semifinals will begin Sunday (Sept. 21).
Someone who claims to be a witness alleges that the Fever fans ejected said nothing out of line to Allisha Gray.
Boston, 23, will share the mic with Bird, who was recently immortalized with a statue by her longtime team, the Seattle Storm. A former No. 1 pick out of UConn, Bird went on to win four WNBA titles with Seattle and five Olympic gold medals.
