Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell’s Crazy Play in Feve-Wings Go Viral.
The Indiana Fever flew south on Sunday afternoon to play their second game of the season against the Dallas Wings. Just before the Olympic break, the Wings won the opening game 101-93. In every game they have played in August, the Fever’s backcourt tandem of Kelsey Mitchell and Caitlin Clark have been outstanding. Clark earned her first WNBA Player of the Week honor on their route to a 5-1 record, and Mitchell topped the league in scoring.
Against the Wings, the two stars combined for an epic play that has landed all over social media.
Just two minutes into the game, Clark grabbed a rebound off of a Dallas miss and started dribbling down the court. The former Iowa Hawkeyes star then made a perfect full-court bounce pass to Mitchell.
Mitchell caught the ball under her own hoop and instantly made a behind-the-back pass around a defender to forward NaLyssa Smith for an easy layup.
WNBA fans were amazed by this sequence from the Fever and took to social media to leave their reactions.
“WHAT A PLAY by the Indiana Fever”.
“Caitlin Clark to Kelsey Mitchell to NaLyssa Smith… did not know Kelsey had that pass in her bag! That was sweet.”
“This Fever sequence was NASTY Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell dropping dimes”
