Timpson is a a regular part of the team’s starting unit. She provides Indiana with a strong inside presence and is efficient with her shots inside the paint. The Florida State product is averaging 5.5 points on 63.6% shooting, along with 4.9 rebounds per game.

Clark, on the other hand, has broken several WNBA records this season. She is also third in the league in scoring and first in assists with four games left on the schedule. The Fever are 26-14, tied for fourth place with the Atlanta Dream.

“Keep going twin,” Clark said.

Timpson responded to Clark’s comment.

“Sayless twin,” Timpson commented.

The duo continues to shine for Indiana as the team aims to secure a top-three seed. Along with Kelsey Mitchell, Aliyah Boston and the rest of the Fever, they are battling with the Las Vegas Aces and Atlanta Dream for third place. They have three weeks to rest and have more practices before they wrap up their schedule and begin the playoffs. Timpson’s emergence as a reliable frontcourt star will be tested in the postseason, but she appears confident. She also has the support of her teammates, especially Clark who motivates her to keep working hard.
