free throw line where the Sparks have the differentiator here tonight as hamy hits double double in six games if she could get there that one rims out on her Mitchell step back on a deep two that's a tough look McDonald running the floor McDonald lays it in there a third overall pick back in 2021 here is Mitchell fire away and here's Brink sprinting inside great defense back benley the F running here's Mitchell Wallace is wide open behind that was Caitlyn Clark and a shot clock violation well some really good deep from way outside [Applause] that a first quarter Brink is wide open and misses on a three down to six M benley spinning on Hami oh the reverse Indiana back within three and a hold there on V benley on the entry it's Clark who's Off to the Races and Caitlyn Clark pulls the fever back within one heals two blocks been probably your best defensive game as nurse Mitch on the drive right to the rim oh she missed again back Mitchell back for Boston she'll fire a three and connects Boston's first basket from three to start the second half Brink inside now the fever have five on four it's Clark way outside on the fake Clark weaves inside and the reverse here is McDonald trying to create right in fact benley just trips and for reinforcements she's got it in Clark hand off to Boston just sees a wall spins out of it nicely wall is knocked away and miss it rebound Boston she's starting to impose her will and the extra pass nurse is wide open and a much needed three for handby handoff competitive fire after she sticks it here McDonald has go with Boston Clark kick out here's Mitchell you bet murse trying to answer and does with a big three Clark Bobs it f benley finishes not even halfway through it here is Lexi Brown with the bank shots Clark Boston extra pass oh Mitchell halfway down with a lot of space to roam she finds Mitchell this looks like a completely different team than we saw in the first half nurse off balance wheeler it's a four on three Mitchell will fire and being risky with their defense you should be able to get some opportunity like that drives inside this is a deep two Boston hit a three earlier wrs side corner but they did that time and Boston was wide open Smith to far underneath gets it back for samelson and a blocking foul on got her over nice teamwork there as Mitchell fires and hits a three now with the forward out of it's been the story of the Sparks night and Mitchell beats the pack back Mitchell scalding here in the third quarter Corner three and an answer something for Kelsey Mitchell right now and Wheeler misses on a three violation talet way outside she's a sharp shooter but not McDonald see it he does gets rid of it and hits a three five points or two possessions that's how close their games have been that's how in a late game situation and another triple here from Kurt Miller's group as Mitchell leaves a three ball short there was a two a tough shot to take dangerous pass but it found its way to Hami and it's for Coach sides Samuelson a deep three I mean a barell can't get it to go Smith pulls down the spot by Kurt Miller's group little high low with Hami and Clark Helder Jersey you know what that is the most at this point well aggressive attack and draws the foul benley Miller's team either he's going with a little bit of a smaller lineup two-man game behind the back frees up Boston flips it up and draws the foul injured there Brown injured earlier so their point guard [Applause] options big test for the second year remember 11 roster spots and that's why you got to stay ready on the end of the bench you don't just blow by talit but misses at The Rim Boston picks up for Beaver with 10 fast break points on the night Boston hits the free throw basketball here as Clark nearly took that one away in the corner barell hits a three and he only played 5 minutes total before tonight Boston had her shot big minutes for Kurt Miller a travel on [Applause] Clark as Hami Fades fires and misses Yu probably call on the floor stands as nurse can't get it to go there's Boston with the rebound just under eight minutes to play Clark finds some space and hits a three of Boston going left Pat going left five rebounds three steals two blocks the f back within one and it's an offens oh this is going up time she touches it inbound Samson got free it was de CLK putting on the moves gets by nurse wrap around turnover pounded by wheeler Indiana's already committed four fouls that one hand be with a good free throw shooting team nurse finds some space and hits another three big shot from the three-point line here is Clark n three has been the story here of the spark second half I think all three of her triples are in the second half yeah you got to throw it in there that's a foul 14 Clark Blows By McDonald pass got deflected and turned over McDonald straight on three have not been a great three-point shooting team this year but they have been tonight that's a [Applause] blocking some big shots for some Mis communication Ary McDonald with the steel and the finish and just like that Mar and double bounced it off the brink Austin shot clock down to five hounded by Brink and the fever turn it over again Brink extra pass nurse has been brilliant and St and a whistle before Clark could get rid of it choose and figure out around the game wins a good time to rester 120 run here in the second half Brink is open can't get the bounce on that three barell with the initial contact and then she went down I think that Sparks bench over there you got to get can you get three stops in a row that's what you got to be thinking right now Brink lobbing it inside Hami denied game inbound nurse will she do it again she's on the three Ops for Clark back for a rolling Boston foul and one combined eight for 11 they have made 10 triples struggling offensively all night even when they were leading and Kia nurse fourth Boston into the corner Wallace will fire and hit a three so it's a quick to get the layup oh that's going to be a foul on handy and gets two instead of shooting a three two free throws instead of three that sheet five rebounds five assists four blocks three time to go here from Indianapolis back to door pass Jackson lost the handle but they'll say Miss is on the first ma him one of two Indiana didn't get that timing right here is wheeler on the drive right into traffic an ill advice nurse the step through floats it up and why not for K underneath back benley struggling with it will head to the line here Indiana trailing by nine with 67 seconds to go but not huddle Clark gets them both she's got defense here McDonald rattles out Boston lost the game 40 seconds to go is there some Clark magic Clark way outside they battling nurse what's the call here timeout Indiana get it into Hami who swarmed and fouled she's had five of them there six games to open up the season calmly knocks down the quarter lead youve got your defensive and Clark is fouled by nurse trap if you can first 27 complete performance certainly your best defensive night of the year inbound Jackson back for nurse who's fouled the nurse who came over via trade in the off season been really struggling it hit just two over 15 last 15 shots coming in space she'll bounce it back for Boston she'll hoist to three and bury [Applause] it and off of benl will stay which has been a terrific career but she misses the first and does not have the ability to advance the ball one of two Clark will drive get to the rim lay it in it's a four point see the frustration there on Clark some of the players faces and games with regularity Wallace gets rid of it and that
