The Sparks have won all three games against the Fever this season, with the regular-season finale coming in Los Angeles on Aug. 29.
Indiana had its five-game win streak halted. The run was the Fever’s longest since winning six straight in 2015, during current head coach Stephanie White’s first tenure with the club.
Hamby and Plum each scored 14 points in the first half, and Los Angeles closed on a 23-8 run to build a 54-43 lead at the break. The Sparks were 7 of 14 from 3-point range by the intermission, with Stevens, Jackson and Plum combining to make 6 of 7.
A sex toy thrown from the stands landed near Indiana’s Sophie Cunningham. The incident occurred with 2:05 left in the second quarter with the object landing in the lane near Cunningham, who had been vocal on social media about fans throwing the toys on the court. Kelsey Plum kicked it into the stands. Cunningham walked over to the Sparks bench and was laughing about it.
