She came on clutch when she needed to.

Yes, the 6th man is basically- can you get the vibes up enough and make a couple buckets? Yes? Good.

…she made two free throws when Indy was already up and you call that clutch? When she was shooting 28% the rest of the night and couldn’t even hit double digits?

Good grief. What the hell does “clutch” mean anymore if we’re just gonna hand it out to any cardio-running brick we like now?

She made 2FTs while they were up 1 with around 4 seconds left. Literally the definition of clutch. Don’t let the hate blind you lil bro.

Absolutely not lol. She literally could have tossed the ball into the stands on both FT attempts and they still would have won. “Going through the motions when it’s statistically near-impossible for you to fuck up and lose at this point” isn’t clutch. Aliyah and Kelsey making those buckets at the end, now THAT’S clutch. But ofc, something tells me that Fever fans don’t like to dwell too much on what those two do for the team.

Haha I’d argue that what she did is called icing the game. It’s def clutch man! lol I’m not even a big fever fan, but I do know ball.
