"She makes my life easier out there," Clark said. "It's hard to pick and choose. It puts the defense in a really tough spot... I think we really just read and understand each other a lot better from where we were at the beginning of the season... I'm really happy for her and proud of her."

In the win over the Wings, Clark posted 35 points, eight assists, and two rebounds, while Mitchell recorded 30 points and one assist.
