The Indiana Fever concluded their pre-FIBA World Cup schedule with a dominant 111-91 victory over the Connecticut Sun on Friday. Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell led the charge, with both players scoring 34 points each. This performance extended their WNBA record for the most 30-point games by a pair of teammates in a single season, marking their fourth such occurrence this year.
The Fever's offensive output also pushed their franchise record for 100-plus-point games in a season to 19. The team heads into the FIBA World Cup break having won their final game before the pause.
Connecticut held an early lead, outscoring Indiana 28-19 in the first quarter. However, the Fever responded emphatically in the second quarter, outpacing the Sun 39-15 to take a commanding 58-43 lead into halftime. The second half saw the Fever maintain their advantage, with a highlight-reel assist from Clark to Mitchell contributing to the offensive effort.
Mitchell's 34 points moved her into the league lead in total points scored this season. With four games remaining in the regular season, the Fever will resume play on September 18, facing the Toronto Tempo on the road.
