Aaliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell also deserve recognition for their contributions Boston recorded a double double of her own with 24 points and 14 rebounds showcasing her ability to dominate the paint her physical presence and rebounding skills have been crucial in supporting Clark and providing the fever with a balanced attack Boston's development throughout the season has been notable initially criticized for her inconsistency she has steadily improved becoming a more reliable scoring option and a formidable force on the boards against the Sparks Boston's aggressive play in the paint particularly in the fourth quarter helped seal the victory for the fever Kelsey Mitchell meanwhile continues to be a key figure for Indiana her 18 points four rebounds and two assists may not

been instrumental in the fever's recent success Indiana fever's coach Christy sides was named coach of the month for August and her tactical Acumen was on full display in this game however the team performance was not without its flaws the fever started slow with their offense appearing out of syn and their defense lethargic they committed eight turnovers in the first quarter alone a statistic that nearly cost them the game despite this size adjustments in the second half particularly her decision to push the pace and play more aggressively proved effective sides has encouraged a style of play that utilizes the team strengths Clark's playmaking Boston's interior dominance and Mitchell scoring versatility this blend of skills has given the fever a well-rounded attack capable of competing with the League's best teams however for Indiana to make a deep playoff run they will need to maintain their intensity and minimize unforced errors the fever's tendency to force feed the ball to Boston in the paint during the first half backfired leading to numerous turnovers and stalled offensive sets the strategy likely intended to build Boston's confidence and establish an inside

the fever look toward the playoffs maintaining a high Tempo and focusing on ball movement will be crucial their Reliance on Clark's playmaking and Boston's interior scoring must be balanced with a commitment to defensive intensity and rebounding the Spark's ability to hit wideopen threes exposed some of Indiana's defensive vulnerabilities particularly their perimeter defense and communication

against Elite competition Clark Boston and Mitchell form a potent Trio that can challenge any defense but their Supporting Cast must also step up to alleviate the pressure the fever's playoff hopes rest not only on the continued Brilliance of Clark but also on their ability to clean up their mistakes and play to their strengths if they can do that they will be a formidable opponent for any team in the postseason
