MINNEAPOLIS  — The Minnesota Lynx can pull away pretty fast when they start running, so the Indiana Fever knew they had to slow them down to survive on Sunday night.

It took awhile, but Indiana put on the brakes and earned a victory.

Katie Douglas scored 22 points, including the go-ahead basket with just over a minute to play, and the Fever beat the Lynx 78-75.

The Lynx were active on the fast break, outscoring Indiana 13-2 in transition in the first half and putting together a handful of breathtaking rushes and quick passes to erase an early 11-point deficit and take a one-point halftime lead.

“When we get in our half-court defense we have an extreme amount of confidence that we can get stops,” Douglas said. “We don’t have a lot of confidence when the other team is running the ball down our throat. We definitely came in at halftime, made an adjustment and cleaned up the transition.”

Fever coach Lin Dunn said the halftime talk focused on better shot selection to slow down Minnesota’s fast-break offense.
