The Indiana Fevers scouting report should come with a warning label.
When you have to deal with Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell, that is dangerous.
You know, we're talking about poison, and I've been making the, the Princess Bride.
I've been doing that bit for a while.
You know, I clearly cannot choose the cup in front of me, you know, because whether it's Caitlin or it's Kelsey, you're in a lot of damn trouble.
And those two have hit a stride.
I really think since Caitlin Clark's career-high game against the Seattle Storm, that like allowed Everybody around the Indiana Fever to, to let their shoulders down a, a bit.
And it seems like the, the bond between Clark and, and Kelsey Mitchell has only gotten stronger, not to mention the, the combination that they are out on the floor.
I mean, you know, what's a great big myth that Caitlin Clark hasn't improved her game because she's improved her game tremendously.
She's doing a lot more.
Off the ball, moving without the ball, coming off of screens and shooting the ball.
She's driving the lane at will.
Her handles have gotten tighter.
She's finishing through contact.
She's hitting mid-range.
She's hitting floaters.
She is doing everything.
She's averaging 30+ points and 8.8 assists in under 30 minutes a game over the last 4.
And then Kelsey Mitchell is finally getting her deserved flowers because she is absolutely incredible.
The way she's able to split the defense, like she's Nightcrawler coming through a, a, a teleportation portal or something like that, boom, she's so quick, so fast, so electric, can get going at any time and bury you.
