That lived up to the hype. The Fever got another win over the Sky with a 91-83 victory, making it two consecutive wins for Indiana.
While Chicago led after the first quarter, it couldn’t keep the momentum despite just a two-point deficit heading into the fourth. Angel Reese was called for a Flagrant 1 after her arm collided with Caitlin Clark on a block attempt late in the third quarter.
Regardless, the Sky weren’t effective from the field, shooting just 40.7% compared to Indiana’s 56.6%. Chicago’s ability to get offensive rebounds kept it in contention but wasn’t enough to pull ahead.
Four Fever players scored 15-plus points with Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston leading the way with 23 and 19, respectively. Boston added 14 rebounds as the duo’s chemistry came to life. With a near triple-double, Clark is now the fastest WNBA player to reach 200-plus points, 75-plus rebounds and 75-plus assists.
It’s a disappointing loss for the Sky as their losing streak extends to four. But their future is still looking bright. Angel Reese recorded her sixth-straight double-double while Kamilla Cardoso got her first of the season. They’re the fifth pair of rookie teammates to each record more than 10 points and rebounds in the same game.
It’s only a matter of days until the rivals…
