Outside of blowing one game and letting the other get out of hand, the Fever have been on quite the run. I love CC but Mitchell is the MVP of the league in my opinion.
Strong case for Mitchell based on FG% (.504) and 3PT% (.435). She's averaging 24.2 PTs/Game, not counting the Liberty win. She hasn't missed time, as she's started all 33 games now. She's averaging 1 Stl/Game, one shy of AB at 1.4/Game. No idea what her clutch point shooting is, but it has to be pretty high. Yeah, she's looking strong.

Very true. Still I had to chuckle when they were talking about Mitchell being in the league 9 or 10 years now, BUT it was just from 2024-26 That she really took off. Hmmm.. I wonder what happened two season ago until now that let her have her three best years in a row, and getting better. Obviously Mitchell's put in the work as she has all the way back to OSU, but what happened in 2024 that opened the floor up for her. Hmmm..

Fever really have it rolling right now. I am loving Timpson starting- I think it has really given them an edge. I am trying to think of a men’s analog - maybe Rodman?
Timpson did a solid job defensively tonight. Still hesitates a little bit after receiving a pass from Caitlin and it costs her opportunities to finish.

She doesn't quite have that tenacity and edge that Rodman played with, and thankfully, lacks the theatrics and drama as well.

But I think Timpson's arrow is only going up and she's starting to get more comfortable at this level of play. As long as she can occasionally finish a pass from CC and force tough shots in the paint on the other end, then she is probably the best option on this team rounding out the starting 5 for the remainder of this season.

Lexie will be a little more comfortable with the 3, and Sophie and Mo are just better off the bench. They can eat up minutes on a given night depending on who's on and who's not.

Ty is a spot bench player that is too irratic and Raven just isn't consistent enough yet, which isn't fair to hold against her too much because this league has a horrible history of killing rookies' growth before they ever got a chance.

She does need to get on the floor a little more, but with the way their offense is clicking right now (and she's just not really a part of that....yet) there's just not a lot of room for her right now.
