The Indiana Fever improved to 12-8 on the season after defeating the Las Vegas Aces, 84-68, on Sunday. Kelsey Mitchell led the way in the absence of the injured Caitlin Clark, exploding for 27 points on 7-of-18 shooting.
Aliyah Bostonalso stepped up in a big way, dropping a double-double of 18 points and 10 rebounds, along with two blocks.
Naturally, head coach Stephanie White was hyped to see her team win. In her locker room speech after the game, she was full of praise for her players and commended them for their resilience.
"We were resilient early in the first quarter, and then we continued to climb throughout the rest of the game," White said. "Really proud of you guys. That's a great win. It's a great effort."

Aside from the victory, however, White also trended for a different reason following the game.
In her postgame speech, White removed her signature black leather jacket as she addressed her players. Fans couldn't help but take notice of her physique, particularly her biceps that stood out because of her black tank top.
"Drop the arm workout, Steph. I'm trying to get [biceps] like that. Good win Fever!!" a commenter wrote on the Fever's video. Another one said, "Coach is fineeeeee."
"Okay Coach with the arms out!!" a fan added.
"Ok coach," a supporter added, along with several flexed biceps emojis.
"Coach looking buff," a follower noticed.
A sixth poster noted, "Great job girls. Coach SW looking buff."
"#arms," a social media user added, along with fire emojis.
The Fever will return to action against the Los Angeles Sparks on Wednesday. Sure enough, plenty of eyes will be on Coach White as she looks to extend Indiana's winning streak.
