the other end here's Clark Boston extra pass Lexi Hull barries a free Lexi Hull here out of the Olympic break now 11 of 15 from the three-point line that's 73% but the fever give it away and Carrington with the Finish that's Connecticut's fourth turnover Smith spinning on the Baseline and gets it to go Stephanie white riding with Thomas here with two fouls as Clark gets inside and lays it

corner Mitchell is open and flashes home a three she's still hot Indiana looks like they got their focus back oh d pass inside Smith had it and lost it found its way to Carrington who lays it in and what should have been a turnover for Indiana instead is a three-point play you don't usually see those two sit next to each other on the Indiana bench but wheeler hits a three Off the Bench it's contagious Dro that at least right now to a two-point [Music] shots boner lost the handle Stripped Away and shot clock violation bark looking inside oh a near impossible angle but still got it to

to Thomas who's so lethal in transition Thomas got it to go Arkin wheeler sharing the floor here early second quarter wheeler steps into a three and connects foot behind the line that time it will count as a three down a 21t three-pointer earlier but it's Harris with a triple of her own and she said reminded me that David Letterman's mother bought the first season ticket for Indiana Fever games how about that very cool very fitting he's in attendance Ty Harris has his level here at 38 we of led by nine Connecticut by six Mitchell showing off the muscle here is Clark trying to create on Thomas the leak's two leading assisters Thomas knocks it away hole has to Fire and why not come on here is May answering with a three well both of Lexi holes threes have immediately been responded to by Marina Ma and here is Clark wide open knocks down a triple well Clark runs Carrington into Alysa Thomas good guard to guard switch there by Indiana Thomas has been really strong too but that time coughs it up here's Lexi Hull three on two hole feeds to Clark right back for Lexi Hull who buries the three there's red hot and then there's what Lexi Hull has been doing park off the screen waits for Boston Who cashes in nice sign of the growth here from the fever from early June the last time they played Connecticut and showing off on the defensive end as that one was off Jones last [Music] here's Nelissa Smith trying to create on the drive hang but can't finish nice move to get there here's carington she's got numbers if she hurries Carrington takes it right into hole and [Music] finishes Mitchell shot clock winding down again had it strip from behind and another turnover Outlet past Carrington it was right on the money Mitchell shot clock winding down again had it stripped from behind and another turnover Outlet past Carrington it was right on the money we talked about it on Monday the fever have struggled on these jump ball situations here this year and boner hangs and finishes it turns into a three-point play Clark can't make them pay Smith with the putb and it bounces home so the fever go through Boston one of their pillars and Boston gives it away Carrington with the Steal into the hesitation the step through the find de Bonner and now Connecticut is in front and it's hard when you turn it over to stop the ball Lexi hle fire away why not Lexi huller 43 she deploys that outlet pass already I would say better than any player in the league it's Caitlyn Clark's fourth assist here is Jones from the mid-range fact benley easily wins it here for Indiana shot clock at 14 Clark step back hits a three there's no defense for that Carrington with an answer what does Clark have upper sleeve this time oh she gets it to go maybe could have got a foul there too of her fifth straight game with 20 points he a new franchise record when she gets there and here's ma from the mid-range uhoh she gets hot now watch out this is playing defense like that wins the jump ball what a sequence there by Carrington here's Burton going coast to coast and laying it in the team at the deadline trade right before the break she can make buckets bark splits the double and the floater there's the floater that she worked on during the break Thomas just fires it up there and Banks it home to beat the shot clock Park launching ahead and hole with an answer on the other end what a [Applause] pass Austin backing her way inside deep position she won't miss from there well you give Thomas that cushion on the top because you want her to shoot it but you've got to make sure you defend her and not to get that deep oh ran right into a wall flipped it up there and AD DOA blocked it out of bounds not often you David Letterman and getting the third biggest cheer in the crowd or fourth if you count Caitlyn certainly oh Carrington weaving through traffic and a crafty finish for D Carrington who's got 17 turns the corner into traffic whole thought about the three hle back
