Overview
- The Indiana Fever beat the Toronto Tempo 113-91 on Tuesday with Kelsey Mitchell scoring 27, Sophie Cunningham adding 24 off the bench, Caitlin Clark finishing with 21 points and a season-high 14 assists, and Aliyah Boston posting an 18-point, 11-rebound double-double.
- The Fever’s 113 points were the most the franchise has scored in a regulation game and the win extended Indiana’s streak to four games, moving the team to 9-5 and improving its Commissioner's Cup standing.
- According to the Indiana Fever, Clark became the fastest WNBA player to reach 250+ points and 100+ assists in a season, doing so in 13 games, and the league named her Eastern Conference Player of the Week for her recent stretch.
- Clark was listed as probable on the pregame injury report for recurring back soreness but played; rookie Raven Johnson was questionable with a left-ankle tweak and Toronto’s leading scorer Brittney Sykes exited with a noncontact foot injury that the Tempo later ruled out.
- Sustaining the surge will hinge on managing Clark’s back, cutting turnovers after she had six in the game, and the Fever getting consistent bench production as they prepare to host Atlanta in their next game.
