The Fever are back in the playoffs for the first time since the 2016 season, when Tamika Catchings led the charge. Indiana's 19 wins so far this year are also the most since the team had 20 wins during the 2015 season.
A lot of it has to do with Clark and how she's meshed offensively with last year's Rookie of the Year Aliyah Boston and veteran point guard Kelsey Mitchell.
Since the Olympic break, the Fever have hit the ground running and shown how much they were able to connect during the month off. The team led by Christie Sides has an 8-3 record since returning to the court on August 16.
