Indiana Fever part of new WNBA playoff viewership record on ESPN

The opening matchup of the postseason series between the Indiana Fever and the Las Vegas Aces recently set a new viewership benchmark for the broadcaster. A peak audience of 2.6 million tuned in to watch the action, bringing the average viewership to 2.1 million.

This figure marks a substantial increase compared to the opening contest from the previous postseason schedule. Meanwhile, individual milestones continue to accumulate as the schedule progresses, highlighted by a historic performance featuring fifteen assists and more than twenty-five points in a single contest.

The two squads are scheduled to meet once more to determine which team advances to the subsequent playoff round against either the Dallas Wings or the Golden State Valkyries.
