"I mean, we got embarrassed against Indiana," she explained. "We understood that we didn't want to go down that road anymore. We get tired of being in that space. So for this game, and hopefully moving forward, we find our joy in the game. And particularly the defensive end, we got stops. ... That's how we got rocking and rolling, and that's what we're going to have to continue to do."
Wilson, who racked up 29 points against the Fever, struggled to get support from her teammates. Coach Becky Hammon said the game was "one of the worst performances I’ve ever seen."
"That's a complete lack of professionalism to come here with that effort," Hammon told reporters. "They played better yesterday in practice by a lot. I don't know how you step onto the floor with 20,000 people in the stands and perform like that. It is the worst offensive night I've ever seen [since] I've been here in the last four years."
