    Fever All-Star guards Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell proved, yet again, on Sunday that they are one of the most dangerous backcourt duos in the WNBA today. Together, the pair torched the Dallas Wings to lead the Fever to a 100-93 victory, which also happened to be Indiana's fourth consecutive victory.

    Clark and Mitchell combined for 64 points on 53.7 percent shooting and 10 triples to win at Dallas. The pair also put on a passing clinic in this one as well, with Clark dishing out 12 dimes, en route to another impressive double-double.

    For her part, Mitchell logged three assists, but one of her dimes has to stand out as arguably the best Fever sequence throughout the game. Clark, of course, was heavily involved in the eye-popping play.

    As Bleacher Report so aptly put it, that was one "nasty" sequence from Indiana. Clark started things off by firing a one-handed bounce pass to Mitchell that covered three-quarters of the court. After receiving the ball, Mitchell knew exactly where teammate NaLyssa Smith was as the Fever guard dished out a pinpoint behind-the-back bounce pass.

    That was poetry in motion, and the fans on X, formerly Twitter, seem to agree.

    "Clark and Mitchell showcasing their incredible playmaking skills with some slick assists. The Fever are heating up with these plays!," reacted a supporter.

    "That Fever sequence was absolutely electrifying! 🔥 Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell are truly showcasing their skills and making magic happen on the court. Can't wait to see more highlights like this! 👀🏀" a reaction read.

    "That's TEAM play at its highest level!" said another.

    "Showtime Fever?????" a fan asked.

    "THATS SO CLEANNNN," posted a viewer.

    The Fever, who have won six out of their last seven games since returning from the month-long Olympic break, are finding their groove at the perfect time. They have seven more games to play before the WNBA Playoffs begin, and Sunday's win now has them sitting at the No. 6 spot.

    If Clark, Mitchell, and the rest of the squad keep on playing like this, Indiana could end up surprising opposing teams come the postseason.
