**Indiana Fever to Face Chicago Sky Without Head Coach Stephanie White**

The Indiana Fever will face a significant challenge Saturday night as they aim for consecutive wins for the first time this season, with head coach Stephanie White absent due to personal reasons. Assistant coach Austin Kelly will step in as acting head coach for the game against the Chicago Sky.

The Fever, currently at a 3-4 record, recently broke a three-game losing streak with an 85-76 victory over the Washington Mystics on June 3. This season marks Stephanie White's first as head coach of the Fever.

Injuries have been a substantial hurdle for the team. Star guard Caitlin Clark sustained a quad strain during the game against the Liberty on May 24, and Sophie Cunningham is managing an ankle injury. Clark mentioned on June 5 that she would be re-evaluated after the game against the Sky.

Austin Kelly, who is stepping in for White, has been a long-time collaborator, having served as an assistant coach with her at the Connecticut Sun in 2023 and 2024. The Fever’s game against the Sky is set to tip off at 8 p.m. ET in Chicago.
