Story summary

On Friday night, Kelsey Mitchell scored 33 points to set a new WNBA single-season scoring record of 1,034 points, surpassing A’ja Wilson’s previous mark of 1,021 points. This helped the Indiana Fever defeat the Toronto Tempo by a score of 103-85 at Coca-Cola Coliseum in Toronto. Mitchell also extended her streak of scoring at least 20 points to 25 consecutive games, another WNBA record.

Caitlin Clark contributed significantly with 28 points and a season-high 14 assists for her 14th double-double of the year. The Fever improved their record to 27-14, winning their third straight game and eighth in ten outings. Meanwhile, the Tempo fell to 11-30 after losing five consecutive games.

Despite strong performances by rookie Kiki Rice with 18 points and Laura Juskaite leading Toronto with 22 points, the home team’s poor free-throw shooting (19 for 30) hindered their chances. The Fever maintained a steady lead throughout most quarters but saw a brief surge from Tempo early in the third quarter before regaining control.

Both Mitchell and Clark were part of the US team that recently won the FIBA World Cup, adding to their impressive season performances with the Fever.
