“I feel like we are confident but that’s any team in this league when you are able to stack some wins. That’s everything. I think coming out of the break, we start with two big wins at home against Phoenix and Seattle. Then we go on the road and drop one.

Clark acknowledged that the team’s confidence is at an all-time high and also highlighted the mentality and approach of her teammates, including herself.
“I am just really proud of our group. We are approaching it day by day even though these games are so important, we are not looking that far down the stretch like what’s at the end of September or what’s in the middle of September. It’s what is in front of us today and we are approaching it like that and that’s how you build your confidence,” the Fever rookie said.
With eight games remaining in the regular season, the Fever will look to keep piling up wins and climbing the standings. Indiana’s next challenge comes on Sunday against the Dallas Wings.
