Clark Returns, Leads Fever Past Liberty

Caitlin Clark returned from a quad injury to lead the Indiana Fever to a 102-88 win over the previously unbeaten New York Liberty, scoring 32 points with eight rebounds and nine assists, including a franchise-record seven 3-pointers. Her performance included a viral full-court assist to Aliyah Boston and drew praise from LeBron James. Clark’s play ended New York’s winning streak, made her the fourth-fastest player to reach 850 career points, and set a record for most 30-5-5 games in a player's first two seasons. Her return has revitalized the Fever and generated excitement throughout the WNBA. Clark continues to support Indiana sports by attending Pacers NBA Finals games and has expressed her long-term commitment to the state. Alongside Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton, Clark is embracing her role as a central figure in Indiana basketball, highlighting the potential of small-market teams.
