Where to watch Fever vs. Lynx: TV channel, live stream as Napheesa Collier could return for Minnesota

The Indiana Fever get another shot at the Minnesota Lynx when they travel to Minneapolis for the second part of their home-and-home on Sunday. The game is set for 7 p.m. ET on CBS Sports Network.

This has the potential to be a fun rematch because the Lynx had to fight for their 95-90 win on Friday. Minnesota has already locked in a spot in the playoffs and has a significant lead in the race for the No. 1 seed. The Lynx could have an extra boost on Sunday because Napheesa Collier, who was dealing with an ankle injury, is listed as probable. 

That being said, the Fever seem to step up when facing the Lynx, and even took the Commissioner's Cup championship from them in July without star player Caitlin Clark -- who is still out indefinitely. 

Earlier this week, the Lynx suffered their first back-to-back losses at the hands of the New York Liberty and the Atlanta Dream. However, the game against Atlanta was particularly close, and the Dream have a lot of momentum as the No. 2 team in the standings.

Last meeting

Sunday will technically be the third meeting between these two teams in 2025. The Fever won their matchup at the Commissioner's Cup Championship game in July, although that 74-59 result did not count toward the regular season's win-loss record. 

Minnesota won its most recent meeting 95-90 on Thursday, but the Fever had a hot offensive start and made nine of their first 12 3-pointers. They found a double-digit lead in the second quarter, but the tables turned in the third when Indiana struggled on both sides of the court and got outscored 17-32. Despite holding the Lynx to just 13 points in the last 10 minutes, the Fever were not able to recover.

The star of the night was Lynx forward Jessica Shepard. She registered the fastest triple-double in WNBA history, which she completed with 8:03 remaining in the third quarter. Shepard finished the night with 22 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists. A 27-point performance led Indiana's efforts from Kelsey Mitchell, who is averaging 20.4 points for the Fever. 

Clark still out; Collier probable

Caitlin Clark missed her 14th consecutive game with a right groin injury. She has only played 13 games this season, and so far, there is no timeline on when she might return.

"Until she can get into practice, and until you guys see her in practice, it's really status quo, same as same as we have been," Fever coach Stephanie White said on Wednesday.

The Indiana injury list is also longer than Clark. Chloe Bibby (left knee), Sydney Colson (left knee), Sophie Cunningham (right knee) and Aari McDonald (right foot) are all listed as out, while Odyssey Sims (right groin) is listed as probable.

Meanwhile, Collier has not played since Aug. 2, but she is expected to return soon. She was questionable on Friday and went through warmups, which is a good step in the right direction. Collier is leading Minnesota in points and rebounds, while her 23.5 points per game make her the top scorer in the league. 

Collier is still the top MVP candidate, but A'ja Wilson's campaign is picking up steam as she has the Las Vegas Aces on a nine-game winning streak.
