The Fever had a very rough start to the season, and had to dig themselves out of that hole. With the help of Clark, along side others like Aliyah Boston, the Fever have won three of their last four, beating quality opponents in the New York Liberty, Phoenix Mercury and Lynx. The loss to the Washington Mystics in that stretch was very disappointing, and it is worth noting that the Lynx were without Napheesa Collier on Sunday.
Still, the Fever have to feel happy about where they are after this recent stretch of play. They are at 11-14 overall, which is good for the seventh seed in the league. They have an opportunity to chase down a team like the Mercury as well with a strong finish to the season.
Indiana has one more game before the Olympic break on Wednesday against the Dallas Wings on the road. It would be great to enter the break with a win. The Fever return on August 16 at home against the Mercury, and that is a big opportunity to make progress in the standings. The month of August finishes with five more games against the Seattle Storm, Lynx, Atlanta Dream, Connecticut Sun and Chicago Sky. There are some big matchups against good teams in that stretch.
The Fever then have eight games remaining on the schedule in September, with a game against the Lynx and two against the Las Vegas Aces sticking out as the toughest. The remaining matchups against the Wings, Los Angeles Sparks, Dream and Mystics are very winnable.
It will be interesting to see where the Fever finish in the standings, and who they match up against in a potential playoff series.
