Natasha Cloud

Cloud got some rest during Thursday's regular-season finale, but she saw plenty of work during Sunday's overtime victory to begin the playoffs. She matched her highest scoring total of the season while also posting her second-highest total in steals. The Liberty will now return home for Wednesday's Game 2 with a chance to put the series away.

The Liberty took their foot off the gas in this game with nothing to play for, resulting in fewer minutes for Cloud. In 29.0 minutes per game across 41 regular-season outings, Cloud finished with averages of 10.1 points, 5.1 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.2 steals.

Cloud didn't deliver an eye-popping scoring performance, but fantasy managers should be happy with her final stat line due to her multiple contributions across the board. Cloud has been consistent as a scoring weapon and has reached the 10-point mark in all but two of her previous 12 appearances, a stretch in which she's averaging 11.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.0 steals per game.

Cloud tied the game-best mark in points, posting her highest-scoring outing since July 26. The veteran guard also matched the team highs in rebounds and assists. Additionally, she tied the game high in steals and has now recorded multiple swipes in four of her last five outings.

Following a two-game absence due to a nose injury, Cloud returned to action and finished as the Liberty's third-leading scorer. She also tied the team-high mark in assists. The veteran guard has posted double-digit points in four of her last five appearances, averaging 10.8 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 steals across 27.6 minutes per game during that span.
