How the Fever pulled away

The second quarter was the game. Indiana outscored Connecticut 39-15 and flipped a nine-point hole into a 58-43 half. Clark had a 28-foot three and a layup in the first two minutes of that run. Mitchell stacked a three and a jumper. By the time the fourth started, it was 79-66, and Clark's 32-foot three plus a 20-foot jumper pushed it to 91-75. CBS Sports' play-by-play stopped updating after a Fever timeout at 6:22 of the fourth with that score locked.

The Fever had already beaten the Sun twice this year, including a 123-88 rout in Indianapolis on July 22 when Clark, Mitchell, and Boston combined for 72, CBS Sports noted. Friday was the last home date before the FIBA World Cup pause. Clark is on the U.S. roster. The playoff field is set, and Indiana is chasing a higher seed, the same WNBA desk that already had the DeWanna Bonner Dream signing and the NaLyssa Smith season-ending injury.
