Despite another off night from superstar Caitlin Clark, the Indiana Fever were able to mount a ferocious second-half comeback and knock off the Atlanta Dream, 99-82.

Indiana outscored Atlanta 59-37 in the second half to help secure the 17-point victory.
Kelsey Mitchell led the Fever in scoring with 25 points. She was not the game's leading scorer, though, as that was Atlanta's Jordin Canada with 30.
Sophie Cunningham was wonderful off the bench for Indiana with 16 points (4-for-5 3PT) and 10 rebounds.

Clark scored just 12 points and failed to reach 15 points for the fourth time in her last five games, and she is in a bit of a shooting slump.
She was 5-for-15 from the field on Friday night, fresh off the heels of 4-for-12 and 3-for-13 shooting totals in her two most recent performances.
Three-point shooting has always been Clark's specialty, but she has made just three of her last 28 attempts from beyond the arc.

Indiana is currently tied with the Washington Mystics for the seventh-best record in the WNBA.
Clark will need to begin to come out of her slump to help the Fever go on a bit of a roll and give themselves some separation in the standings.
