For the Fever, Erica Wheeler and Tiffany Mitchell combined for 32 points,7 rebounds and 6 assists. Atlanta had 7 players come out with double figures and the entire bench got minutes to shine and have fun! Tiffany Hayes had 16 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists to lead scoring. Brittany Sykes and Elizabeth Williams both had 14 points, combined for 13 rebounds and 8 assists.

Angel Mccoughtry and Jessica Breland keep twinning with points lately; both ladies had 11 points, combining for 15 rebounds and 3 assists. Monique Billings had 10 points 5 rebounds and 1 assists; most importantly, 2 and-1 plays, how about the rookie?! She even got her first postgame press conference ever after last night’s win over the Mystics.

Billings expressed how she felt she was getting into the groove of the WNBA, “I just have to take it one game at a time and not rush anything.” Very wise advice, Monique, keep going!
