What happened: Indiana Fever forward Damiris Dantas reached 1,000 career rebounds during Monday's 78-76 win over the Washington Mystics. The 10-year veteran secured the milestone board in her first game back since early May, helping Indiana improve to 6-5 on the season.
Why it matters: Dantas joins an elite group of international players to record both 1,000 points and 1,000 rebounds in the WNBA. Her return provides a critical veteran presence for the defending Commissioner's Cup champions as they sit 4th in a competitive Eastern Conference. This depth is vital as Indiana navigates a tight Cup schedule with upcoming games against Chicago and Connecticut.
By the numbers: Dantas: 1,000 career rebounds. Fever: 6-5 record (4th in East), 2-1 Commissioner's Cup record (+6 differential). League Leaders: Caitlin Clark (8.2 APG, 1st), Kelsey Mitchell (21.1 PPG, 3rd).
What to watch: The Fever host the Chicago Sky on June 11 as they continue their Commissioner's Cup title defense.
