Indiana Fever vs. Seattle Storm: Predictions, odds, and how to watch Caitlin Clark game
Caitlin Clark cannot seem to get a victory in the WNBA. The Indiana Fever are now 0-4 to start the 2024 season, and now get another tough test on the road against the Seattle Storm (1-3).
The Fever do have a few factors going their way though. For one, this is Indiana’s first game that is not against an undefeated team. Indiana’s first four games were against the New York Liberty (4-0) and the Connecticut Sun (3-0). Not only that, but the Fever got progressively better throughout those four games. After losing their first two contests by a combined 57 points, the Fever lost their two most recent matchups by just 15 combined points. A win in Seattle would go a long way in helping the Fever get their season on track.
The Seattle Storm are no pushovers though. The Storm are very solid on the glass, having pulled down 34 rebounds (12 offensive) in their most recent game, a loss against the New York Liberty. They do have trouble holding onto the ball and coughed up 14 turnovers in the loss. Perhaps the Fever will take advantage. Of course, if Caitlin Clark’s ankle injury persists, that will be much more difficult.
Here’s everything to know about this Wednesday night matchup.

Predictions for Indiana Fever vs. Seattle Storm:
Picks and Parlays: Fever 75, Storm 74
Thomas Pemberton writes, “The Indiana Fever have been playing better in each game so far this season. The Fever are hungry for a win and match up well in this game. Seattle has had their struggles as well during the early parts of the season. Watch for Caitlin Clark to take advantage of the Fever’s second half possessions.”
TribLIVE: Storm 91, Fever 74
TribLIVE is expecting somewhat of a blowout tonight. The point out that while the Fever have been playing better as of late, Jewell Loyd is still likely the best player on the court for either team, especially if Caitlin Clark is not at full strength.
Dimers: Storm to win
Mac Douglass writes, “Our leading predictive analytics model currently gives the Storm a 75% chance of beating the Fever. Number one draft pick Caitlin Clark is expected to star as the Fever take on the Storm, with a projected 25 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 made threes.”

Young male dead after shooting on Indy’s northeast side
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Police say one “young man” is dead after a shooting at the 1200 block of Rue Rabelais at about 7:19 p.m. according to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
That is near the intersection of 56th Street and Binford Boulevard.
Police say the victim was taken to Riley Hospital where he later died. Investigators say they are still working to identify the victim.
There was no known information about a suspect. Police did say that they believe this is a targeted incident.
There was no other information immediately available.
This story has been updated with information from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.

Mother and boyfriend accused in death of 4-year-old boy found in closet
This story contains descriptions of distressing circumstances involving children.
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – A mother and her boyfriend were accused of causing the death of a 4-year-old-boy found dead in a basement closet on Monday.
Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department arrested Angel Lovely, 37, and Nicholas Bergdoll, 36, on preliminary charges of neglect of a dependent causing death. The Marion County Prosecutor’s Office by Friday had not filed formal charges.
A sibling found the 4-year-old dead on Monday, according to investigators. Lovely and Bergdoll were in the home at the time but told police they were asleep when he died.
Born premature with cerebral palsy, the 4-year old couldn’t walk, was nonverbal, and ate through a feeding tube. Lovely claimed she would rarely put the child in the closet, only “when he won’t stop screaming” or when she “needed a break.”
But when investigators interviewed Lovely’s three other children, they said that the boy “stays in the closet all day,” and that “mom locks him in the closet” and “does not pay attention to him.”
An exact cause of death hasn’t been determined, but the child was found with blood in his mouth. Lovely said he’d been aspirating.
One of Lovely’s children told investigators they heard the 4-year-old gagging but didn’t say anything because it wasn’t unusual.
A neighbor living on Monticello Drive, Michelle Johnson, told News 8, “It’s horrible. It breaks my heart.”
Johnson had seen the other children outside the home but never knew there was a boy in a wheelchair living there. She said if she suspected they were being neglected, she would have called police or the Indiana Department of Child Services.
“We’re supposed to be a village and raise kids together,” Johnson said. “That’s really heartbreaking.”
Bergdoll told police, according to the investigators’ report, that he didn’t agree with putting the child in the closet: “I am not going to tell her how to f****** raise her kids.”
“I’m sickened,” IMPD Public Information Officer Tommy Thompson told News 8 in an interview.
“Think about putting yourself in that situation. Every day, do you want to be in a closet? Locked up, no light?”
Court records show the Department of Child Services had removed the boy from Lovely’s care because of medical neglect, but she regained custody last year against DCS recommendations.
Thompson, the neighbor, hopes the tragedy can be an opportunity for others to speak up when they see a child who can’t speak up for themselves. “Maybe you’ve got to make that tough phone call. Reach out. The city has resources.”
Johnson wishes she would have known what was happening so she could have said something. “Children don’t have a voice and we’re supposed to be their voice.”
Help is available for victims of domestic violence, child abuse, and sexual assault. Below is a list of suggested resources, both national and local:

Police arrest suspect in Westfield homicide
WESTFIELD, Ind. (WISH) — Police have arrested someone in connection to a homicide earlier this month in the Hamilton County city.
In a Friday night social media post, the Westfield Police Department announced the arrest but gave no details, including who was arrested or what preliminary charges the person may face.
“Due to the active nature of this case, limited details are available for release at this time,” the post said.
As WISHTV.com previously reported, James “Matt” Lushin, 47, was found dead shortly after 7:25 p.m. March 12 with trauma at his home in the 3900 block of Westfield Road, also known as State Road 32.
Social media posts from the scene showed police tape and emergency vehicles at a red brick house between Shady Nook Road and Gray Road.
Lushin’s obituary said the Kokomo native was a key partner with the real estate investment company, FLF Property. The obituary also said, “Matt was also a respected and accomplished member of the international poker community. He traveled the world competing in tournaments and built an impressive and successful career.”
Police have previously said the death was believed to be isolated, posing no ongoing threat.
Officials have not released a specific cause or manner of death.
