Caitlin Clark, Indiana Fever go into FIBA World Cup break with big win over Connecticut

The WNBA is gearing up to press the pause button for a couple of weeks so players can compete in the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup, and before they could head to the tournament or on vacation, the Indiana Fever had a date with the Connecticut Sun.

Caitlin Clark and company came into the game looking to continue their momentum after a 113-90 win over the Chicago Sky on Sunday, while the Sun were hoping to take what would be just their 11th win of the season.

However, despite the rough season, Connecticut came out firing on all cylinders, taking a 28-19 lead over the Fever after the first quarter, an impressive feat on the road.

The Fever outscored Connecticut 39-15 in the second quarter to flip the script and take a 58-43 lead to the locker room at the half.

While the third quarter wasn't as lopsided as the second, it did feature a highlight-reel assist from Clark to fellow Fever star Kelsey Mitchell.

ZERO BS.
