Fever team have been four- [Applause] [Music] one and Izzy [Applause] Harrison good they it they've been close in fact their last three games it was tied with the majority of their points off turnovers and in transition walking violation St Smith for three shot Diamond to Shields looking to penetrate split the defense again a crucial if if it comes down to a head-to-head in terms of the standings Chicago come like Atlanta trying to squeeze its way in the top eight which make the playoffs eight to shoot cardoso that pass to Jefferson in and out here sitting out with four personals the same with Aaliyah Boston on the fever side off and run to Shields this is where she's at her best but can't finish again another fast break opportunity behind the back trying the contact against but

tonight three points all from the free throw line maybe this will be it and it [Applause] is Allen to cardoso attemps mhm and only three makes with those 11 field goal attempts any points in the paint for the game remember this is a Chicago Sky team that leads the league of the AAR hard but so effective in the paint and trying to back down Boston there's that crosscourt pass you've talked about for had to work to get to the nine 38% but back to F benley and the Indiana Fever get the screen from Boston Peds her benle no P will give it go with Onan W and H in the [Applause] corner thank you Connecticut the WNBA on Ion check your local listings for games in your area speaking leading 15 points five assists 7 Seconds to shoot ball movement everyone almost touching the ball here on this P shooting 38% Caitlyn Clark another three-pointer ball screens you think she's going left she can pop back right you think she's going right she can in different ways F will take their time but certainly what what it has done you know whoever you think the Chicago Sky two team fouls for the fever Clark a deep [Applause] one Diamond triple pull [Music] up but when you're up 25 here's Clark for 29 Points gets tripped up but again you know the the defense in the in the paint you play the numbers you play to the stats yeah of your opponent the sky she was getting subbed out of the game she's over by the sideline talking to Teresa weather spoon Caitlyn and they follow this team wherever they go Dantes from up Topo Sky one and five after returning from the break there's Reese with a bucket three would be a new rookie single season record tied with Tina Char and Reese with her seven points trying to cross over F bleay and I mean they have beaten Seattle they've beaten Connecticut they've beaten Phoenix league but really if we want to go back since mid June the Indiana a fever had the wheeler that hesitation into the corner a look for Saxton wheeler with three on the shot clock for tripoline off the drive spins bucket is good TW ver to Onan W and she gets the end one hey and I and I think that's more of a testament to her greediness to her res Caitlyn Clark just set the three-point record for a rookie the other night points for the fever the last time they scored 100 last year Jefferson in and out nearly a year ago Burger here's Angel penetrating again off the glass and again more fre the numbers speak for the El but there's another player that Chicago Bally of her career before she went down in the first half of the season final few [Music] [Music] seconds for
