00:00We got the Aces storming into Indiana territory to take on the Fever. Now these two teams did just

00:09see each other. Aces took the victory on that one but the margin wasn't all that major considering

00:14what the Fever are working with and how they're trying to still propel themselves into a better

00:19playoff position. So what are we looking for in this matchup? Well the Fever are the host of this

00:24one so maybe home court can play into something. Of course you got Kaitlyn Clark when it comes to

00:28the Fever and you've got the WNBA single season scoring record holder in Asia Wilson. We've got

00:35an Aces team that's averaging 86.4 points per game. Probably, not probably, it is the top

00:41scoring team in the WNBA right now and not only are they sitting first in that they're sitting

00:46second when it comes to shooting. Free throw line there's also tied for second and then of course

00:50you're going to manage these kind of numbers when Asia Wilson is killing it in every single category

00:55possible. Outside of that, outside of the offensive dominance, their defensive woes haven't existed

01:02in the past week and a half. They have become one of the sharpest defensive teams out there

01:06allowing an average of 81.6 points. Yes they're just sitting at six but also gauge where they

01:11started, how they came back out of that Olympic break and how they have picked up their progressions

01:16on the defensive side of the ball. So sitting at six is not bad especially versus this Fever team

01:21that's going to be fighting for every point and every win down the pipeline. But who are the two

01:25leading ladies that are going to make a difference in this matchup? I already basically mentioned it

01:29Kaitlyn Clark taking on Asia Wilson. You got Asia sitting at 27.5 points on average. I mean

01:36it's ridiculous what she's doing but she's not just crushing it when it comes to points, she is

01:40crushing it when it comes to rebounds. She's also helping her team on the defensive side of the ball.

01:45Last week you guys saw a lot of props for the added points, rebounds and assists. I think that her

01:50number usually sits anywhere between like 30 to 35. If you look at the numbers right there her

01:55points alone are going to get you close to that total. Add the rebounds in the mix and you're

01:58already crushing that number. Showing some love for Kaitlyn Clark who's averaging 22.5 points,

02:03five and a half rebounds. But we know where Clark comes in hot, it's that assist column. It's how

02:07she dishes out the ball and supports her team to find the net. So sitting at eight and a half

02:13over under when it comes to the assist, that's usually a shoe-in to slam on the over.
