I watched a little of the game and the Fever opened the preseason with an 109-91 victory over the New York Liberty. 

The core that made a run to the East Finals managed to stay intact.   Add a, hopefully, healthy Caitlin Clark and the Finals has to be the expectation and anything less would be a disappointment.   Should be a fun season.

Already figuring out what game me and my daughter will be attending.   If you haven't had a chance to go up for a game, I highly recommend it.   It is a fun time.

Pre-season game #2.  Dallas 95 Indiana 80.

Caitlin Clark led all scorers with 21.   Paige Bueckers put in 20 for the Wings.

Sacred Heart and Indiana grad Grace Berger played 14 minutes and netted 3 points for Dallas.

Solid starting 5.   Hopefully Sophie's knee is at or near 100%

Wings 107 Fever 104 in the opening game. 

I watched it, it was very competitive and close the whole game.

Safe to assume Dallas will not have the top pick in the 2027 W draft.

I watched a lot of the win over the Sparks last night, Fever won 87-78.

I also thought Clark looked at the top of her game, she did so many things well on the court.  Additionally, she looks stronger to me.

Kelsey carried them last season, with all the injuries they had.  Hopefully whatever afflicted her in the last playoff game was dealt with and she can go a full season.  When she gets on a streak, it's fun to watch.

Speaking of fun to watch, the game last night was fun to watch.  I feel like the level of play has improved and the broadcast was superb. 

I was a great broadcast.   Sophie being mic'd up was highly entertaining.

The only thing I didn't like about it is the same thing I dislike about any game being broadcast from LA and that's let's see how many stars we can find in the crowd.   Nothing is as bad as a Dodger game, but the whole spot a hollywood star in LA is cliché.
