Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell are making the Fever into title contenders

CHICAGO, Illinois - August 8: At United Center, Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell of the Indiana Fever were interviewed by ESPN reporter Holly Rowe after defeating the Chicago Sky. Former high scorer for the Fever, Clark, scored 37 points and dished out 10 assists, becoming only the fifth player in WNBA history to achieve a 30-point, 10-assist game.

Mitchell, on the other hand, contributed 23 second-half points, marking her 23rd game with at least 20 points. The Fever are on track to set the record for the most offensive rating in WNBA history, largely thanks to their dynamic duo. Clark said, "Playing with Kelsey, it takes the pressure off me, especially in those moments where the game is fast-paced.

She makes it so easy for me." This was their third time in WNBA history to both score 30 points in a game together. The victory was crucial for Indiana, who had been struggling with a six-game losing streak that included a three-game losing streak at home. The win lifted them into contention for the playoffs, putting them just outside the top four spots.
