While the Fever will certainly miss Clark’s 19 points, six rebounds, and 9.3 assists per game, they have enough offensive firepower to compete on a nightly basis. Veteran guard Kelsey Mitchell is averaging 17.8 points per game, with former Rookie of the Year Aliyah Boston scoring 18.5 per game to go with 10.8 rebounds and a robust 60.8% field goal percentage. Boston is coming off a monster performance against the New York Liberty, where she scored 27 points on 12-for-19 from the field with 13 rebounds.
After starting the season 2-0, the Mystics have dropped three straight and will look to take advantage of a Clark-less Fever squad. Washington is led in scoring by Brittney Sykes (22.3 per game), a 31-year-old guard who has been thrust into a scoring role after being a fantastic defensive player most of her career. She had never averaged more than 3.8 free-throw attempts over her first eight seasons, but has gotten to the line 11.8 times per game through her first four games.
