Caitlin Clark is probable for the Fever despite a back issue.

Tempo vs Fever Prediction

This is a massive line for a team that hasn’t played in more than two weeks. However, the Fever are the best-scoring team in the league, and it creates an issue when the Tempo are down so many of their top players. Where are the points going to come from? The only reason to give the Tempo a look is rust due to the long layoff. This should be a blowout. Give me the Fever in a beatdown.
