Alex Golden and Casey Johnson are back for a loaded episode of Fever Focus after a busy stretch of Indiana Fever basketball!
Since the guys last recorded, the Fever have played four games and gone 3-1, giving Alex and Casey plenty to discuss. They go game-by-game through the stretch, breaking down how Indiana performed, which players stepped up and the biggest storylines to emerge as the Fever continue their five-game road trip with a trip to New York on Sunday.
Kelsey Mitchell continues to score at an incredible level and has been one of the driving forces behind Indiana's recent success. The guys discuss her offensive explosion, why she's been so difficult for opponents to contain and just how impressive her current stretch has been.
They also dive into Makayla Timpson, who continues to show why she belongs in the Fever's starting lineup. What has Timpson added to the starting five, and how has her emergence changed Indiana's frontcourt?
Then there's Caitlin Clark, who had some terrific moments but also experienced some up-and-down performances over the four-game stretch. Alex and Casey evaluate what they've seen from Clark, where she's thriving and where things haven't been quite as consistent.
The guys also discuss Aliyah Boston's steady production, the inconsistent play from Indiana's bench, which role players stepped up when the Fever needed them most and what Indiana needs to clean up as the road trip continues.
Four games. Three wins. Plenty of storylines.
Alex and Casey break it all down before looking ahead to Sunday's showdown in New York!
