Overview

  • The Indiana Fever beat the Chicago Sky 113-90 on Sunday night as Caitlin Clark scored 37 points with 10 assists and Kelsey Mitchell added 30, lifting Indiana to 25-14.
  • Clark made a career-high eight 3-pointers and the Fever set a franchise single-game record with 18 made threes, finishing 18-of-33 from long distance.
  • The Sky’s loss, combined with other results, officially eliminated Chicago from playoff contention and extended Indiana’s control of its postseason positioning.
  • The Fever played without center Aliyah Boston because of a right-leg injury, and Clark and Mitchell’s scoring load helped carry the team through a five-game road trip.
  • Clark’s fifth career 30-point/10-assist game and the pair’s third mutual 30-point game set WNBA marks and sharpen questions about MVP voting and how Indiana will sustain this form into the postseason.
