On Saturday, the Indiana Fever and Caitlin Clark were defeated 99-80 at home by the Las Vegas Aces thanks to a double-double of 29 points and 15 rebounds from A’ja Wilson.
The 3-1 Aces received 20 points from Kelsey Plum and 22 from Jackie Young. For the 1-6 Fever, Clark finished with eight points on 2-of-8 shooting, seven assists, five rebounds, and six turnovers. Indiana was behind by Kelsey Mitchell’s 16 points.
With two games against the unbeaten Connecticut Sun and another two against the New York Liberty, last year’s finals, Indiana has been put into the fire early on.
But the Fever’s away game against the reigning WNBA champs on Saturday was as difficult as it gets.
