What happened: Makayla Timpson described playing alongside Caitlin Clark as "just greatness right here" in comments shared by the Fever. The remarks come as Indiana hosts New York, with the game not yet underway and the score 0-0. Timpson, who made her first career start for the Fever this week, has been increasingly paired with Clark in Indiana's rotation.

Why it matters: The comments underscore the on-court chemistry Indiana has leaned on during a three-season stretch that includes Clark's rise as the Fever's primary offensive engine. Both clubs enter with playoff positioning on the line: Indiana at 15-10 on a one-game skid, New York at 15-11 on a three-game skid.

By the numbers: Fever: 15-10 this season, last five LWWLW, currently on a one-game losing streak. Liberty: 15-11 this season, last five LLLWW, currently on a three-game losing streak. New York won the teams' last meeting 83-75 on June 6.

What to watch: Tip-off is upcoming with New York listed as and an 5.
