    The Indiana Fever came out with a dominant all-around performance on Sunday as they beat down the Seattle Storm in a 92-75 blowout win.

    As expected, Caitlin Clark led the charge for Indiana with 23 points, five rebounds, nine assists, a steal, two blocks and three triples in 36 minutes of action. The rookie sensation got a lot of help from her teammates in this one, with Aliyah Boston (nine points, 15 rebounds, eight assists), Kelsey Mitchell (27 points, five treys) and Lexi Hull (22 points, six triples) all stuffing the stats sheet in the Fever's second consecutive victory after the WNBA's mid-season Olympic break.

    A brief clip of Clark and Boston is now blowing up online as the two stars shared a heartfelt moment ahead of tip-off. Thankfully, Clark was mic'd up, so we all heard exactly what she had to say to her teammate right before the game started.

    "You're gonna be amazing, because you are amazing," Clark told Boston.

    Boston clearly appreciated the words of encouragement from Clark, who is now stepping into a leadership role with the team.

    The mini pep talk worked wonders, too, with Boston going off with a near triple-double to help Indiana secure the victory.

    The Fever have now improved to 13-15 on the season, and are just 1.5 games behind the sixth-seeded Phoenix Mercury. Only eight teams throughout the league will qualify for the playoffs, which start in a little over a month.
