"These two definitely hurt the most," Clark said after the game, referencing the Fever’s 88-84 loss to the Connecticut Sun on Monday. "We’re, what? Six points away from being 2-3 instead of 0-5. "

Clark again scored a team-high 21 points after a slow start against the Storm. She was 6 of 16 from the field, but she struggled again on her 3-point shot. 

"It’s just that close and there’s so many instances of going back and watching the film of like, little things you can easily fix and clean up that would go a really long way, and possibly it wouldn’t even come down to one possession," she said after the loss.

"I think you have to find confidence in that – especially at this point being 0-5. If you just get upset by it, I don’t think that’s going to be too beneficial for us."
