Los Angeles Sparks vs. Indiana Fever | FULL GAME HIGHLIGHTS | September 4, 2024

season his second year in La after spending seven years in Connecticut a fever clinched a playoff birth last night they look to keep the good times rolling you can let Indiana get out on a break and you can't let Kelsey Mitchell get going cuz she has been phenomenal in the last seven games she has seven straight with 20 or more that is a franchise record she's pulling away a big lead in that category as Hami showing off the craftiness inside she did all the hard stuff and then couldn't finish the easy Sparks offense just 11th in the WNBA as Odyssey Sims gets inside and finishes mental toughness you're right Pat you look at LA's loss seven of eight but the one win is New York the top team in the league there's Boston who gets inside and lays it in Clark with a hesitation Clark gets inside and lays it in instead of turning it over Indiana that's not something she was doing last year Mitchell catch and shoot whistle there to hit a three and let's check on where this foul is just a stunning run here from Kelsey Mitchell one of the best all time in Fever history Mitchell doing a really good job fronting Ria Jackson and it's McDonald who knocks down a three that offensive foul is Indiana's eighth turnover of the quarter Mar Burell who's just checked in and nurse dials up a three has made the most triples for La that's her 41st CLK stepping back on the Baseline knocking it down from the mid-range that's a beautiful mid-range step back the Pacers playing with the fastest Pace in the D in the NBA and you can say that about the Indiana Fever they play at a very fast pace one of the tops in the league certainly after the break for sure player of the month rookie of the month Clark on the bounce D is charging inside and finishing it's a great read Because ke and Nur stunts at the downhill drive but Lexi Hall is in the corner and you don't want to give up a three to Ho McDonald working the Baseline there's Burell through traffic and a tough finish Mitchell lost the handle that time on the drive [Applause] here is Nurse stepping back launching and hitting a three Mitchell no look oh and Smith denial but on a second effort finishes Kelsey Mitchell or Lexi Hull behind the three-point line nurse stepping back and rattles that one home so Kia nurse has another good one going first player into double figures here tonight she's done it Off the Bench Clark regularly seeing two there in the back court and that is Indiana's 10th turnover here you got to move it quicker you see the blitz Caitlyn gets rid of it quickly you got to move the ball and Hami there to make Indiana pay on the other end well for perspective Indiana's only got one more Road game left in the entire season people have just been sloppy here so far well they haven't gotten anything easy they've had to execute in the quarter court and now La starting to make shots and they're getting back in transition fight for position in the down Mitchell trying to get this Indiana offense kick started that'll help Kelsey Mitchell he's got 9903s on the season and Stevens answers with a three AER Stevens they're gone they've been gone Clark good feed into Boston with deep position lays it in going back to carry high and get some shots up here's azer again oh doing her best Debbie antelli come on azer backto back triple she's a 35% three-point shooter coach of the Connecticut Sun been former coach of the year and executive of the year in this league and he loves coming back to the state of Indiana where he has a home he's a longtime college coach at Bowling Green and at [Music] Indiana really good guy Sims able to flip that one in allowed me in there it's always a learning laboratory when you're in the gym with these coaches in the W because they work so hard at their schemes and it was really fun to be in another team's practice in the league here's Burell fighting inside and getting the [Applause] roll bench has 21 of their 44 points as Boston back door cut it's Mitchell that play has worked Sims off the screen driving into Samuel and denied what a tremendous defensive play Katie M samelson on the switch using her length not fouling now clock down to seven Jackson trying to create driving on samelson shot Off the Mark there's Hami right place right time Hami off that bronze medal in the three on three in the [Applause] Olympics look at inside here is Jackson has the size advantage on Wheeler and Jackson knocks it down pretty stroke and she lets the game come to her I've never seen her push or Force anything in the W when the game slows down and you're a rookie that's impressive oh Clark beautiful find to a cutting Boston for this fever offense for Caitlyn Clark as Indiana's offense has exploded here out of the Olympic break Smith going one-on-one attacking Hami and winning the battle Indiana knows they're they're all willing passers out of that play here's Stevens lining up a triple and aere Stevens is not knock down three from out there three triples azay shoot till your arm falls off aay Boston now with 14 and eight he's finding some room to work down there and on the other end Odyssey Sims continues to stay aggressive Sims has 12 and Boston can't finish underneath Mitchell has the offensive rebound for Indiana Mitchell staying aggressive flips it up flips it in right hand Kelsey [Applause] Mitchell there driveing on Clark feeds it back for Hami Hami with a crossover driving into Smith leads a shot short defense there by Alissa Smith AR with nine points seven assists here so far Clark crossing over and dropping a [Applause] three Clark being watch by nurse Clark on the drive Clark hangs and Banks it home she snakes behind it then she creates this mismatch for a Stevens it's a really well-designed play by Kurt Miller and Indiana likes to ice those ball screens on the side of three triples Clark trying to answer you [Applause] bet so look at the mismatch inside Yu is being guarded by Mitchell and Clark and barell knocks down a three and we're back to a point run here so far tonight and his offense has been a little out of sink at times Boston spinning inside right around McDonald beautiful move AR working on McDonald who gives it a swipe Clark step back hits a three five triples Caitlyn go ahead and shoot till your arm falls off and Mitchell knocks that one away here comes Clark going the other way Clark going behind the back oh it's Boston an and one Clark sets up pole and connect on that three Smith with the rebound oh pretty Spin and Smith gets it to go so tough what she has done has been exactly what we need of her barell catch and shoot oh way too strong but the bank is open we needen stops on the defensive end and they lost Hami and and one [Applause] and the attacking Boston spin move floats it up gets it to go and a foul for de' Hami Carell cut off there by Boston inside for Hami sent back Nelissa Smith closes the door at The Rim that is Clark's ninth rebound she's an assist and a rebound shy but that time turns it over Sim picks puckets and Sims lays it in with a foul call timeout and Advance the ball Boston shot clock down to three drives her way inside muscles to the rim Kelsey Mitchell's
