Stop me if you’ve heard this before: Caitlin Clark hit a big 3, and the game was all but over.

Clark’s 3 with 3:06 to play gave Indiana an 84-77 lead, its largest of the game, and the Fever pulled away 91-83 for its second consecutive win over the Chicago Sky.

Clark led all scorers with 23 points, adding eight rebounds and nine assists, plus two blocks. Her connection with Aliyah Boston (19 points, 14 rebounds, five blocks) was evident Sunday, as the two No. 1 picks worked together beautifully to pick up Indiana’s fifth win of the season.

Though the Sky dominated the boards early, Indiana wound up winning the battle on the glass 38-32. That was at least partially due to foul trouble from Chicago’s Angel Reese, the league’s top offensive rebounder who had to sit for a long stretch in the third quarter. The Sky struggled without Reese on the floor, while the Fever thrived. Reese finished with 11 points and 13 rebounds, but shot just 4-of-13 from the floor. Marina Mabrey led Chicago with 22 points.

Indiana also shared the ball well in the win, totaling 23 assists on 35 made field goals. Five Fever players scored nine points or more; besides Clark and Boston, Kelsey Mitchell chipped in 17, NaLyssa Smith had 15 and Katie Lou Samuelson went 3-of-4 from 3 for nine points.

A closer look at the game:

Caitlin Clark hits a big 3

Caitlin Clark has big block

Not that long ago, Caitlin Clark was leading the Indiana Fever in total blocks. She’s clearly trying to own that stat category again after a big block on Chicago guard Marina Mabrey.

Fever, Sky in tight game

This game might very well come down to who has the ball last.

Indiana has a 68-66 lead heading into the fourth quarter after the teams traded runs in the third.

The difference could very well come down to turnovers: Through 30 minutes the Fever have thrown the ball away 10 times, which has led to 13 Chicago points. (On the flip side, five Sky turnovers have resulted in just three points for Indiana).

Caitlin Clark continues to stuff the stat sheet; so far the No. 1 pick in the 2024 Draft has 18 points, five rebounds, five assists and one block. She leads Indiana, but two other Fever players have scored in double figures with Kelsey Mitchell (14) and Aliyah Boston (13).

Marina Mabrey has 18 for Chicago, and Chennedy Carter has 14.

Indiana has also closed the gap on the glass; Chicago now leads in rebounding just 30-28.

Fever leading Sky at the half

One way to counter your opponent’s rebounding advantage: Shoot well from beyond the arc.

That’s exactly what the Indiana Fever are doing, connecting on 6-of-12 attempts from 3, giving Indy a 47-43 halftime advantage over Chicago.

The Sky, meanwhile, are dominating the glass, with a 23-17 overall rebounding advantage, including 11 offensive boards (which has resulted in 14 second-chance points).

Caitlin Clark started hot, scoring seven quick points in less than five minutes, and then went quiet until 26 seconds to play in the half when she scored on a nifty reverse layup. She has nine points, four rebounds and four assists. Kelsey Mitchell leads the Fever with 10 points.

For Chicago, Angel Reese is already close to a double-double, with nine points and eight rebounds, and Kamilla Cardoso has grabbed 10 rebounds in less than 17 minutes of play.

Both teams have balanced scoring attacks so far, which means we’re in for an entertaining second half.

Caitlin Clark isn’t the only one feeling it from deep

The Indiana Fever are 3-of-4 from deep after the first quarter, with Clark, Katie Lou Samuelson and Lexie Hull connecting on 3s. But eight offensive rebounds for Chicago have helped the Sky take a 26-23 lead at the end of the first period.

Chicago’s Chennedy Carter, who started today instead of coming off the bench, leads all scorers with eight points. Clark is next with seven points. She also has two assists and two rebounds.

The craziest stat is this, though: Chicago's Kamilla Cardoso already has seven rebounds. Seven! And we’ve only played 10 minutes.

Caitlin Clark has Fever off to early lead

Caitlin Clark has already scored as many points in less than five minutes as she did all last game. Not bad.

Clark is 3-for-3 with seven points and the Fever have an early 13-8 lead over Chicago with 5:49 to play in the first quarter. Clark is known for her logo 3s, but she’s found a lot of success in the WNBA when she drives to the rim early in games and gets some easier looks to get in a rhythm. That’s exactly what’s happening today. She opened with a nice drive, then hit a 3 (assist to Aliyah Boston for a great screen) and then scored on another drive.

Angel Reese, meanwhile, has two points and two rebounds already.

Who won last game between the Indiana Fever and Chicago Sky? 

The Fever scored their second win of the 2024 WNBA season and their first home win on June 1 when they beat the Sky 71-70 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. And things got testy. 

With 15.1 seconds remaining in the third quarter as the Fever led 53-49, Chicago's Chennedy Carter blindsided Clark and shoulder checked her from behind as Aliyah Boston was trying to inbound the ball to Clark. Only a common, away from the play foul was called on Carter at the time, drawing disbelief from the Fever and the TV broadcasters and igniting major controversy on social media. The next day, the WNBA upgraded Carter's foul to a Flagrant 1 after league review. – Cydney Henderson
