Overview
- The Indiana Fever beat the Connecticut Sun 111-91, with Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell each scoring 34 in a game played Friday that marked the fourth time this season both teammates scored 30 or more in the same game.
- Clark added 12 assists to become the first WNBA player with consecutive games of 30+ points and 10+ assists, and Mitchell extended her league record of consecutive 20-point games to 24.
- The win clinched a playoff berth for Indiana and moved the team to 26-14, with four regular-season games remaining after the WNBA pauses for the World Cup.
- Off-court attention has intensified after the Fever’s social media 'MVP²' co‑MVP post and a widely shared sideline timeout exchange between Clark and assistant coach Briann January drew strong fan reaction.
- Clark said she feels 'probably the best' she has in her career, but coverage notes Indiana’s defensive rating and turnover issues remain concerns that could limit the team’s postseason ceiling.
