The Indiana Fever and Golden State Valkyries are set for another late-night showdown in the WNBA schedule, with Caitlin Clark and the Fever traveling west to extend their three-game winning streak. The matchup comes less than a week after Indiana defeated Golden State 90-82 in Indianapolis, but Thursday's rematch at Chase Center in San Francisco is far less predictable.
Both Teams Enter at 4-2 with Momentum
Indiana's offense has started to look overwhelming again with Clark healthy and pushing the pace, while Golden State continues to rely on one of the league's toughest defenses. The Valkyries now get another chance to slow down one of the WNBA's hottest teams on their home floor.
Fever's Offensive Firepower
Indiana's recent turnaround has been fueled by its stars finding rhythm simultaneously. Clark returned from back soreness last week and immediately looked comfortable, scoring 22 points with nine assists in the previous meeting against Golden State. Aliyah Boston dominated inside with 20 points and 16 rebounds, while Kelsey Mitchell added 19 points as the Fever controlled the second half.
That offensive firepower has become Indiana's identity early this season. The Fever are averaging 93.7 points per game, the highest mark in the league, and Clark ranks near the top of the WNBA scoring and assists leaderboard with 23.8 points and 9.0 assists per contest.
Valkyries' Balanced Attack
Golden State counters differently, without relying on a single dominant scorer. Instead, they attack in waves. Veronica Burton and Gabby Williams lead a balanced rotation where seven players average at least eight points per game. Their depth was evident in Monday's 97-70 win over Connecticut, when 11 different players scored at least five points.
Injury Update
Indiana enters the game relatively healthy, though a few names are worth watching. Caitlin Clark is listed as probable due to back soreness after missing one game earlier this season, but all signs point to her playing Thursday after looking sharp in recent outings. Reserve guard Bree Hall has been ruled out due to illness.
For Golden State, Iliana Rupert remains out for the season for non-injury reasons related to pregnancy. Outside of Rupert, the Valkyries are expected to have their primary rotation available.
Date and Starting Time
The Fever and Valkyries will tip off on Thursday, May 28, 2026, at 10 p.m. Eastern Time and 7 p.m. Pacific Time at Chase Center in San Francisco, California.

With both teams at 4-2 and playing confident basketball, the rematch carries more intrigue than the standings alone suggest. Indiana aims for another statement win before a difficult road stretch, while Golden State seeks payback after letting last week's meeting slip away in the second half.
