The Atlanta Dream and Indiana Fever played a huge game on Sunday afternoon. The two teams entered just a half-game apart in the playoff standings with only 10 games left in the regular season.
The possible playoff matchup lived up to the billing, needing overtime to decide the winner. When the dust settled, the Fever escaped with a 95-91 win, picking up a huge win.
Indiana forced the season series against Atlanta to end tied 2-2, keeping the Dream from clinching an important head-to-head tiebreaker.
The win comes in the first game of a five-game road trip for Indiana. The Fever have been focused on resting their stars when they can this season, and now the team plays five games in the next eight days, including Sunday's win over the Dream.
Atlanta ended the first half on a 17-4 run. Allisha Gray finished the half with 17 points, while no other teammate had more than seven. She ended the game with 32 points, a career-high, but it wasn't enough to help her team pick up the win.
