Fever star Kelsey Mitchell (leg) leaves Game 5 vs. Aces

Indiana Fever star guard Kelsey Mitchell left in the third quarter of Game 5 on Tuesday of her team's semifinal matchup at the Las Vegas Aces after her leg gave out in a scary scene.

Mitchell was seen grabbing at her left knee during a Fever possession, and on their next trip up the floor, when an offensive foul was called on teammate Aliyah Boston, Mitchell signaled to the ref that she needed medical attention.

Team trainers spent several minutes working on her leg, with ESPN reporting they were focused on her left quad area. At one point, they rolled out a stretcher for Mitchell, but she stood up and was able to walk off the floor with help.

Mitchell had 15 points and was 3-for-3 from 3-point range before her exit.

The three-time All-Star finished fifth in MVP voting this season. She averaged a career-high 20.2 points and 3.4 assists while starting all 44 games for Indiana, and she had a 34-point outburst in Game 1 of the series vs. Las Vegas.

The winner of Tuesday's game will advance to face the Phoenix Mercury in the WNBA Finals. The Fever are already without Caitlin Clark, Sophie Cunningham and Aari McDonald due to season-ending injuries.
