Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston lead Fever to fourth-quarter comeback over Lynx in latest impressive win
The Fever have now won three of their last four games, and taken down the Liberty, Mercury and Lynx in that stretch
By Jack Maloney • 2 min readCaitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever continued their mid-season turnaround on Sunday afternoon with a comeback win over the Minnesota Lynx, 81-74. Down by seven entering the fourth quarter, the Fever outscored the Lynx 28-14 in the final 10 minutes to secure the victory.
"[We won, thanks to] defense," Clark, who finished with 17 points, three rebounds and six assists, said. "We've won every single game we've kept our opponents under 84 and obviously [they only scored] 74. Even though we probably didn't shoot the ball the greatest, we found a way to win. We're resilient, came into the quarter down seven and just battled."
Defense was a major issue for the Fever early in the season. While their tough schedule didn't help matters, they were routinely getting shredded on that side of the ball. During their 3-10 start, they were last in the league by a massive margin, and allowing 111.7 points per 100 possessions.
They've been much better since then, and the fourth quarter on Sunday was further proof. Minnesota shot just 4-of-13 from the field with three turnovers, and got nothing easy down the stretch. With less than 30 seconds to play, Kelsey Mitchell came up with the biggest play of that game on that end, as she arrived out of nowhere to block Alanna Smith and preserve the Fever's narrow three-point lead.
