Without her, Indiana has won six of its last eight games and eight of its last 12 contests. Kelsey Mitchell, who earned her third straight All-Star bid, has stepped up her offensive game lately, but in Wednesday’s 107-101 win over the Phoenix Mercury, Indiana had an unexpected hero.

Another player who has been on fire of late is Sophie Cunningham, who has started in all five games that Clark has been sidelined. Cunningham has scored in double figures in seven out of the last eight contests, making her one of the most dangerous offensive threats on the roster.
