Following the championship game, the Fever will return to Indianapolis on Thursday morning. The team is expected to arrive at Indianapolis International Airport just before noon. The Indianapolis Airport Authority will throw a Fever Welcome Back Rally at Civic Plaza when the team arrives.

As they've done all playoffs, the Fever found a way to stave off elimination. Indiana is 5-0 in elimination games this postseason and 9-2 since the 2012 playoffs when it beat Minnesota for its lone title.

Briann January scored 17 points and Tamika Catchings had 11 points, nine rebounds and five assists for the Fever, who nearly won their second straight game on the road to open this rematch of the 2012 series won by Indiana.

Indiana Fever fans will have a chance to get free tickets to see Game 3 of the WNBA Finals at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.

Briann January had 19 points and six assists and the Indiana Fever stole home-court advantage in the WNBA Finals with a 75-69 victory over the Minnesota Lynx in Game 1 on Sunday.

Tamika Catchings scored 14 points to lead Indiana to a 66-51 victory over the New York Liberty on Tuesday night in the decisive Game 3, advancing the Fever to the WNBA Finals.

Same teams. Same dreams. The Indiana Fever are once again facing off with the Minnesota Lynx in the WNBA Finals.
