Dantes bounces for Charles Charles flips it up but setting up f benley Charles trying to get it to coffee and ping pongs around and stays B benley fires away and thises everything that's not it's the Atlanta Dream with a two-point lead and Caitlyn Clark is winding down just a and she is now in the top three all time and Charles is fouled around her they're moving the ball so much better she's coming off a 15 and 10 game and Tina Charles is and two rebounds here in the first half that'll put her into double this is turnover number eight and Charles can't finish underneath can't two lateral too long across the top of the floor lead the most slave led by here this afternoon [Music] Midway on her way up Finds Its way to Lexi hle who knocks up really looking confident Alicia gray oh pass ahead Smith in the floor Canada the hesitation flips it up to Charles throws it right here what a pass hle fire away three for three this has just been one of the stunning stretches as Ryan Howard Hall lines it up behind the FP yeah they're going to they're going to challenge it [Applause] out there is it well the official during the free throw they got to be on the same page on that that's what I'm talking about that's an offense initiated contact the challenge Roy go in Teresa stuck and he jumping in an unnatural position into a Defender for the turnovers by Indiana those 63s for Indiana I said it from the very lixie Hall's respon response is yes percent rexie hle from the three-point line since we of athletic Boston wins the tip back to Nelissa Smith on too far underneath that's a tough angle somehow got it to go pass out of that put it right in the middle of the rim and so over of the first half Howard and connect on Mitchell she can't get open Boston takes it herself fires it up and it's Boston here in the first half and gray knocks down a three the the mental focus Caitlyn definitely had two feet in the ball above over gets the foul on the other end this is the first free throw she's missed there's a lot of white in the logo right there oh and Smith the spin the drop step and finish they leave too much space gray launches and misses Indiana and the fever turn it over here for the really good dud knock clock down to four I think Lexi Hall is doing a really good job there on the catch with high hands high hands are so important for don't miss tonight's game night special featuring the fever logo got to get in early pick up the game day special before you even and it doesn't matter what time of day you go in this for me Howard hoist out of the time that shot 12 off of the turnover as Canada spins inside opportunity to close out the half with Atlanta up by two and you just have to be solid at times too right so make sure that we're following for the third quarter this was the quarter that kind of did Indiana in on tries to take better care of the basketball got a run they got to accelerate through their quarter court stuff it's not in the top half of any offensive statistic blocked by Smith Charles on a third effort gets it up gets it hang on in there making an extra play the extra effort the set and Charles now with ran hard Howard slices the floor gets to the Elbow Clark launches leaves the three ball Howard shakes off hole and hits a three Ian Howards got four five of them and Atlanta's up it reflected in that timeout this veteran Erica wheeler well I'm glad Erica wheeler got into him a little bit because body language it's not good basketball body language and Ryan Howard is so Howard who came into this game with backto back 30 point per Smith is blocked in a foul on the reverse half right I mean upset complaining Doom we go to work when you can got away with an extra step there gray spins no whistle either way leaves those screens Boston runs into traffic flips it up and draws the foul stop and then Boston to the here from the line tonight SP Pacers Insider emails visit pacers.com to early in the fever season
