“It takes the pressure off me a lot, especially in moments like this. Like you get tired when the game’s playing played at the pace that it is, and you can hit her on a cut, you can give her the ball in an ISO situation. Like she just makes it so easy for me in the backcourt, and she obviously pulls the defense to her quite a bit. So just try to find her the most I can, and I think she had seven points at halftime. So, 23 in the second half is pretty incredible, and like, it’s just like nobody like bats an eye. I don’t think people understand how hard that is to do, and she just does it consistently on a night-to-night basis. So, it’s been fun to get to see up close,” Clark said.
