Indiana-Seattle box score
Lauren Jackson scored 25 points and Betty Lennox hit a jumper in the final seconds to lead the Seattle Storm to a 59-54 win over the Indiana Fever this afternoon.

After Kelly Miller hit a 3-pointer to give Indiana a 54-53 lead, Lennox made a 13-foot jumper with 15 seconds left. The Fever had a chance to go ahead, but Stephanie White missed a pair of free throws with 6.7 seconds left.

Jackson and Kamila Vodichkova each made two free throws in the final seconds to seal the win.

Lennox finished with 15 points for Seattle. Tamika Catchings and Kelly Miller led Indiana with 15 points apiece.

The Storm shot 31.7 percent for the game and made only 5-of-28 field goals in the second half. Seattle had a better performance at the free-throw line, making 18 of 19. The Fever shot 2-for-7 from the line.

Catchings scored seven straight points during a 9-0 run that gave the Fever a 51-45 lead with 5:20 left.

Seattle tied the game at 51 after Vodichkova scored the Storm's first field goal in nearly 12 minutes and free throws from Lennox and Vodichkova.

Jackson struggled early to find her shot, but improved late in the first half.

Trailing 25-19, Jackson hit a 3-pointer, stole the ball at halfcourt and scored to pull Seattle within one. Jackson scored the Storm's last 16 points of the half for a 35-33 lead.
