“Obviously, Indiana’s another super talented young team that’s going to come in here and play well. The beauty about being young is you don’t know any better. You can play carefree and go into these buildings and let it fly,” Taurasi said.

Against the Sparks, Taurasi scored 20 points on 7-of-11 shooting and 5-of-8 from three. She also notched four rebounds and six assists. Griner added a double-double with 18 points and 11 rebounds.
