"[We'll] continue to streak some wins along," Clark told reporters. "Coach [Christie Sides] has been saying, 'We just have to continue to take a step forward every single day,'" Clark noted, "And we don't have time to step backwards."

While the Fever struggled early on, especially with minimal practice, Clark and her teammates are finding "consistency" Clark said. After winning just one game in May, the Fever have won four of their last six matchups.
