Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell exploded for 34 points apiece in a 111-91 Indiana Fever win over the Connecticut Sun, setting a new WNBA record as the first duo to reach 30+ points four times in a single season. Clark added 12 assists for her fifth double-double this year with at least 30 points and 10 dimes. Mitchell extended her 24-game streak of scoring 20+ points and hit a milestone with her 911th assist, moving into second on the Fever’s all-time assists list. The Fever, winners of seven of their last nine games, are heading into a three-week break for the FIBA Women’s World Cup, with Clark and Aliyah Boston joining teammates in Berlin. The game featured a stunning 18-2 run fueled by Clark and Mitchell’s first 12 points, and the team honored Dolly Parton with a “9 to 5” dance. The Sun continue their road trip against Dallas while the Fever return in September. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
