Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers were the headliners at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Friday. Tyasha Harris became the Indiana Fever's unexpected difference-maker.
Harris came off the bench and scored 15 points in only 17 minutes during Indiana's 98-87 victory over the Dallas Wings. She attempted five shots, all from beyond the arc, and made every one of them. It was a perfectly efficient performance from a veteran whose value to the Fever has not always appeared in the box score. Afterward, Clark made sure Harris received recognition for everything she contributes.
"Ty is probably one of the best teammates I've had," Clark said. "She's always there supporting everybody, uplifting everybody. So it's really fun to see her kind of come into her own and thrive."
Harris' five 3-pointers provided a crucial boost on a night when the Fever needed help overcoming a halftime deficit. Clark carried the offense with 29 points and 10 ******* ists. Kelsey Mitchell added 23 points, while Aliyah Boston recorded 16 points and 10 rebounds.
