The Indiana Fever were back in their “Stranger Things” jerseys and a strange thing happened Thursday night: Kelsey Mitchell opened the game shooting just 3-of-16 from the field. But then the All-Star guard got going and helped lift Indiana past the Las Vegas Aces, 80-70, at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

Mitchell finished with 21 points, while Natasha Howard posted a double-double with 18 points and 13 rebounds, as did Aliyah Boston (13 points, 10 rebounds).

Aces’ three-time MVP A’Ja Wilson had 20 points and 2016 Indiana Miss Basketball Jackie Young had 19 points.

Caitlin Clark sat our her third straight game with a right groin injury and a timetable for her return remains unclear.

Here’s the full box score for Thursday’s game:
