legs having played last night Indiana's been with links force a turnover on Aaliyah Boston tremendous basketball Williams Oh the CLK almost I think the crowd played since last Sunday so 6 days ago Clark misses but there get right to it Williams leaves it for CER is what nefisa ker does so well moving with McBride to call it Carlton and she was a little bit quiet last night two points for Carlton better and better CER fakes the three Samuelson three from the wing off the rim Carlton to clier in stride double team comes against Boston kick out to Carlton the three ball goes mitell will set things up then drive take it herself Collier hits that one coming off a 27.8 rebound played everywhere Clark short Mitchell kicks it out samelson holer alone for the short picking up to where she left off last night hitting big shots here picks up the dribble gets it to FEI rolls in it I mean she's got nine points already taken seven shots and she's tremendous and I don't know how you stop her Clark on the drive pulled up the leg of nice extra rebound offensive rebound by Smith Mitchell tough drive from K all 12 of Indiana's points have come in the paints Clark finds your free perimeter defense here in min soda K bride we think of her as a three-point shooter but she is such a good is 0 for five and the links have the lead well it was just early last season when head coach star to seize control of games a night after that is a great player and yes she has her dropping last night McBride Off the Mark I mean that's just the ultimate compliment she's got a couple of links players takes it herself finish now Carlton has it paint the kick out Hamman Beauty aggressive defense hitting her [Applause] shots and this [Applause] will links closes just after tonight's final [Music] buzzer Tammy fig benley [Music] and so much of what Carlton does that his value starting spot because she is a great shooter as well she got right now large little step back Washington the shot fake heidman hits it great start for heidman two for two from Three Six from three Clark will drive instead UA got out and rounds Carlton Lins it up and drops free for the three in that first quarter and the links build a [Applause] [Music] quarter is actually still the end of the you can see Cheryl ree in a convers Siana getting a chance here and a touch shot but officially now the first quarter has come to an end the links lead is light and easy and fun um it's just to see this team and these fans and these people and they so much to me in my basketball journey and uh building and you're talking to have you go right back to the day or you just kind of just catching up with um showing pictures of JJ and how everybody's getting a blast to get to appreciate each other all over as we continue our conversation with Maya kind of completing this group we'll have greater group in the history of the WNBA TR and I think because Simone had some injury it it watching the Aces and wondering about it's by the time 2017 came around people were tired L on the court right now because foul called on the ball was inbounded so that is what they're sorting out her and she is the next generation of acted that player right there so much it's just being with and what that person's going to become and end up the communities that we play for really really do need us girl that I hug that's not Caitlyn Clark she matters too that's think about the play of basketball right now because the group that you were her flying through the lane and all of the fun stuff but when you Taj is generational shoulders players would get motivated and access to more ways to at a younger age than we were and that's oh chilia picking of nefa ker Meer a former or a fellow in this league long enough where now she's a veteran and she building last night and Thea CER had an career high 18 knows who she is and and and the way she plays as well um she doesn't care who get a Timeout on the court we thank Maya nothing run and has cut the lead Down Still leading it though by seven McBride sitting in the mid-30s for [Applause] most big with membership pricing on 2024 playoff ticket the foul against Kelsey Mitchell was her third and deire Dantes puts the team through 22 a familiar face to Links fan kmac the drive the shot turnovers in this game wheeler the kick out and that that is an important stat for the links Courtney [Music] Clark and the the seemingly thousands of [Applause] f going a push on McBride as we look at Caitlyn Clark hitting her first three of the night eight Clark leaving her of the game for Minnesota the defense slipping through the fever have cut it down to five 335 Boston spins one way then the other so last night with nefisa with I love it that it's the rebounds because it's just the hustle she was rebounding the ball four on the shot clock Williams coach Ras saying stay in the game until it's time to come off the court no contact play hangs on this links defense and it's about getting into the painting in this second quarter he's a twoo lead for the links Carlton frustrated with herself on that one cuz she had a great look that's one of my you said the two best characteristics are of Caitlyn McBride goes to the ground here's a block on Clark LS defense trying to do for Indiana double digits scoring three times this season that's what Lexi is thinking and it is it's in top of the key Dantes picks up her first first foul and there are booze from the battling against aah hman lost this looks like a little bit of a frustration foul for Caitlyn talking about Maya Mo she said I wish I had her defense and I sent to many of the world's most critical hunger spots register it Clark kicks it out here's Clark off the screen the three-pointer is good a patented move for Clark heidman loses the defense t hman but Indiana roared back in that Target Center slow Martin joined by Links assistant coach Rebecca Lamar defensive link I mean we have to continue to be aggressive right we know that there are a couple things we can fix on both ends of the ball coach thank you defensive end that's what the links Pride thems on all offensive rating in the league we see if the links can show throws she only had four points in that first half in this game with Kayla McBride will be interesting to see because you the points may be a little bit slower for her to come in samelson dribble Minnesota retains possession Heen assist on 16 made shots in the pride Clark with McBride runs into clier somehow gets three for M has turned into a loud start to the third clana Smith now Nelissa Smith Courtney Williams off the dribble to [Music] eight Minnesota is off to order scoring on all four possessions like they were shot out of a cannon a three very good for the links they come out sharp third quarters they count all five possessions of this third quarter that the links have Thea Kier does the good work getting through the McBride get one up job on the boards overall 26 boards in this game incidental contact absolutely and Fe is making a huge turns it off to Mitchell Kelsey Mitchell Alena Smith to ker shot Carlton from The Wing is a in the quarter where I think Indiana could really take advantage here low down throw attempts for Indiana in this game sh off right now two on the shot clock right [Music] [Applause] now Kelsey Mitchell putot on the line that's [Applause] a [Music] offense fever crashing the board they just they for the fever and six second chance points but lyns have 10 seconds vi from the line than fans the heroin jys and swag get your big buzzer of this game tonight at all those links greats are here and will be before it went out of bounds but it is Indiana basketball 14 M benley on the pass that is what Rebecca Brunson talked to Sloan Martin for Indiana the fever oh that is the right call right [Applause] there it's getting some Second Chance opportunities Mark geter self free in on the offensive [Applause] board Randy Richardson Claire a challenge by sides were right right just sometimes that can have another challenge to use later in this game the [Music] [Applause] basketball a turnover Misha Hines Allen with the steel William hang on I read that backwards it is 139 in favor of Min heidman lost it 13 on the shot block and a travel some kind of a move 14 for the [Music] game she leads the league in turnovers to be their highest turnover players yeah you're going to whenn noers has slowed down a Michael Jordan jersey we will be hearing from a representative froms I guess caller Clark loses hide man just refuses to go away it's a now the largest ever regular season crowd for a lyx building right now Diamond Miller 23 as you mentioned the largest regular season intense is as much as $4,000 for this game buzzing in Minneapolis Miller picks up the dribble takes Hyman on the Baseline got it to Miller who got it to H one assist on 25m basket for sure Carlton St from Deep tonight Indiana comes quick on the play as well that's her six dime in the process PA and after a made threo dtis back to Hull Lexi Hull Dantes top of the [Applause] key Carlton's pass it's the ninth turnover by the links makes it noisy way that time how about that duo watching this game tonight Lindsay whan human being you'll ever meet in your life speaker on her backpack AR it's a 7even nothing Indiana run her ability just to kind of do it on both ends D eight points in her return to Target Center and a big deal I think it's a great pickup for Indiana too I mean she's only play played in Eight Games this is her ninth this season and on the links are up eight with 515 left 55 to go eight-point lead minute Mark Hull going it but in the up through three quarters she was a plus she likes every move that she makes on the court look at hin McBride is open and she hits it on the team but then Kayla McBride on the shot by Caitlyn Clark working against Smith the step back from demirez and neisa clier has matched her point and then it's the little fade away where she gets her space it's m col or nefisa jump shot a big player in big moments Mitch gets loose from Williams with her four of her last five games timeout with 304 left it doesn't matter we're just we got to fight through and it's true back to back I'm thinking so I think so yes I think they get enjoyable celebration for a jersey retire a sixth consecutive win it needs to get rolling here Mitchell missed the three that'll be the 10th Baseline three dtis the L the high low game from going to have to obviously look for Lings away with the win on that one oh she knew it think that was intentional but she reacted to it almost as hul will try it from the wing Le MC bride burning up the court gets the the basket up and down the for for 22 points tonight for Clark there's 23 for Minnesota so you know mathematically 30 points then for nefa ker with her dad and rebound game she also said she never really adjusted to the time zone in many shots in the in the Olympics and now she's I believe with a win tonight in second place because Connecticut beat the Liberty 5 and0 since the break 22 this season for the links she did last night against the Aces and what she just did here against slone Martin She's Got Kayla McBride Kayla not that it was
