The Indiana Fever are preparing for a prime-time matchup against the Minnesota Lynx at the Commissioner's Cup Championship. 

Before the Fever were set to play in the in-season championship game against one of the best teams in the league, Indiana posted a strong message to their fans. 

"It doesn’t matter where we play...every game is a home game," posted the official social media account of the Indiana Fever. "Wear Rebel red be loud." 

The Fever have proven to be one of the most popular teams in the WNBA, with Caitlin Clark serving as the leader of the attentive wave. 

Aliyah Boston recently talked about this, speaking highly of Fever fans after they packed the stadium in a recent matchup against the Dallas Wings. 

"Every game is a home game," Boston said. "People Show up, they show out." 

The Indiana Fever will face the Minnesota Lynx on Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET. 

Indiana heads into the matchup with an 8-8 record, ranked as the No. 8 team in the WNBA standings, while the Lynx sit at 14-2, ranked as the No. 1 team in the WNBA. 

Minnesota is riding a two-game win streak, having recently defeated the Connecticut Sun and the Atlanta Dream. 

The big question for the Indiana Fever before facing the Minnesota Lynx will be the health of Caitlin Clark. Indiana's star guard has missed the last two games, dealing with a groin injury. 

During her second season with the Fever, Clark has posted 18.2 points, 5.0 rebounds and 8.9 assists per game.
