Sunday afternoon, the Indiana Fever extended their winning streak to five games with a hard-fought 78-74 victory over the Seattle Storm at Climate Pledge Arena.

Natasha Howard led the Fever with 21 points and Aliyah Boston posted her sixth straight double-double (16 points, 12 rebounds) to help Indiana improve to 17-12 in the standings.

While headlines focused on Howard’s efficiency and Boston’s dominance on the boards, an unnoticed play in the first quarter would earn one of the night’s biggest nods, Chloe Bibby’s laser-sharp assist to Boston that cut the Storm's lead to one (15-14) with 3:32 remaining in the first.

On Monday, the WNBA shared a highlight reel on X featuring the top assists from Week 10, with Bibby's dish to Boston making the cut.

Chloe Bibby’s WNBA Journey and Accomplishments

Bibby, a 6-foot-1 Australian forward, carved her reputation on both sides of the globe before landing in Indiana.

After a standout collegiate career at Mississippi State and Maryland, she went undrafted in 2022 but earned training-camp invites with the Minnesota Lynx.

After failing to secure a long-term contract, she then took her talents overseas, competing in the NBL1 South (Australia), Basket Liga Kobiet (Poland) and Liga Femenina (Spain) from 2022 to 2025, winning back-to-back NBL1 South All-Star Five nods in 2023 and 2024.

Signing with the Indiana Fever

After a brief stint with the Golden State Valkyries to begin the year, Indiana signed Bibby on a seven-day contract on July 25.

In her first two games, she averaged 9.0 points, shot 44.4% from the floor and converted 50.0% of her 3-point attempts, giving coach Stephanie White a glimpse of her versatility in limited minutes.

After these performances, Indiana moved swiftly to sign Bibby for the remainder of the 2025 season.

As the Fever fight for playoff positioning over the final month of the regular season, every win and momentum swing is amplified.

With franchise icon Caitlin Clark still without a timetable to return from her injury, versatile role players like Bibby will continue to be relied upon over the home stretch.
