This season is really hard to watch. You lose a player to free agency, and it tore apart the whole team, seemingly.

Broadcast just said Natasha Mack flew back to Phoenix to get her foot evaluated.

Classy.

Fever's Caitlin Clark got punched in the throat, and the refs didn't call a foul

This was painful for Indiana's superstar.

Fun fact: The Mercury shot 69.6% from two last night against the Fever, marking the second-highest efficiency in franchise history.

It was surgical execution, along with all the necessary hustle plays to finish the job

Mercury display their resilience in clutch win over Fever

The Phoenix Mercury showed what a resilient win looks like, defeating the Indiana Fever in a back-and-forth battle with 13 lead changes and playoff-level intensity.

Kahleah Copper over her last five games:

26.4 points on 65.9%-33.3%-82.6% modern shooting splits.

Including 17-of-20 at the rim, by the way. Just elite stuff from Kah. Being more aggressive while hunting specific matchups.

The biggest thing is getting to the free throw line, which Kah has been incredible at this season. Massive jump in free throw rate, almost doubling her volume per 36 minutes.She’s up to 132 free throw attempts in only 18 games after having 88 in her 28 games last year.

Valériane Ayayi's return has been a spark.

Since returning to the rotation their next game after that convo, the Mercury are +28 in her 81 mins.

The defensive versatility, rebounding, & cuts have been impactful. She's also 7-fot-9 from 2 & been at the line *a ton*... 23-of-24.

Averaging 11.5 PPG in this window.
