After Wings coach Chris Koclanes finished answering a question about Arike's shooting struggles today, Paige Bueckers chimed in to support her teammate: "It might not have been her night shooting the ball, but the way she continued to stay in the game ... that was huge for me."

Forwards Aliyah Boston and Natasha Howard also scored 17 and 18 points, while backup guard Sophie Cunningham had 13 points. By the end of the game, the Fever had a 51.9% field goal percentage, compared to the Wings' 47.9%.
