She finished Game 2 leading the Fever with 25 points, six rebounds, and nine assists.

It didn’t come easy for the veteran Connecticut team.

Tempers flared between Clark and DeWanna Bonner early and the chippiness between both teams lasted the entire game. At one point, Connecticut went on a 16-2 run.

Clark helped the Fever get back into the game but the Sun became too much toward the end of the game.

Clark put the Fever up one point with a 26-footer with 4 minutes left in the game. But Marina Mabrey answered right back for the Sun. The teams traded baskets over the next two minutes or so with Bonner eventually nailing a go-ahead 3-pointer with 1:50 remaining in the game.
