Cameron Brink Ties Career-High with 5 Blocks, Sparks Beat Fever with Caitlin Clark Out

The Los Angeles Sparks continued their recent hot streak on Tuesday with a 100-91 win over the Indiana Fever.

Cameron Brink, who made her season debut last week after missing more than a year because of a torn ACL, is still playing on a minutes restriction but was able to contribute. While she didn't do much on offense, shooting 0-of-6 from the field with no points, she was a force on defense, recording five blocks, which tied her career high.

On the offensive end, Kelsey Plum led the way for Los Angeles with 25 points and 11 assists, and Rickea Jackson added 25 points.

The Fever are still without star guard Caitlin Clark, who missed her eighth consecutive game with a groin injury on Tuesday. Even without Clark, Indiana has managed to stay afloat, winning eight of its last 10 games coming into Tuesday's matchup.

The Fever didn't have enough to make it six wins in a row, despite Kelsey Mitchell's 34 points.

Still, Indiana is in a good position at fifth place in the WNBA standings. Once Clark is back on the court, the Fever could be a team to watch heading into the postseason.

The Sparks struggled early this year but now seem capable of making a push for the playoffs. They still have plenty of work to do, however, as they're still a few games back from being a top-eight seed.
