For the first time in eight years, the Indiana Fever have qualified for the WNBA playoffs, much of the credit going to rookie sensation Caitlin Clark, who has broken several records in her first year in the pros. Besides the records, the rookie also leads the league in assists, averaging 8.4 per game. However, basketball is a team sport, and WNBA legend Sue Bird reminded fans that the Fever has other great players, like Kelsey Mitchell, despite the Caitlin Clark mania.
In a recent episode of her “A Touch More” podcast, Bird sang the praises of Clark’s teammates, which the Fever shared on their official account on X, formerly Twitter.
“You can’t talk about the Fever without talking about Kelsey Mitchell, who is on an incredible streak, shooting the absolute ‘you know what’ out of the ball,” the former Seattle Storm star said, definitely high praise coming from one of the greatest WNBA players of all time.
