After a weekend break for the WNBA All-Star festivities, Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever returned to action as they continued building momentum as one of the league’s top teams.
In this matchup, the WNBA’s star and biggest name once again showed why she is so important to the Fever, delivering a dominant third quarter in which she scored 16 points, shooting 4-of-6 from the field and 2-of-4 from three-point range.
To put her performance into perspective, Clark’s teammates combined for just two points during that quarter, highlighting how much she carried the offense.

Clark finished the night with 32 points and helped the Fever secure another victory as Indiana remained atop the Eastern Conference, holding a one-game lead over the Atlanta Dream.
It was also a strong performance in Seattle for Kelsey Mitchell, who added 28 points to finish as the Fever’s second-leading scorer.
Aliyah Boston suffers knee injury but avoids major concern
Indiana Fever star center Aliyah Boston suffered a right knee injury during Tuesday’s game against the Seattle Storm after an accidental collision with rookie Flau’jae Johnson while competing for a pass from Caitlin Clark.
Boston landed hard on the court and immediately grabbed her knee in pain before being helped to the locker room. She returned to the Fever bench for the second half but remained listed as questionable to return.
The injury appeared to be caused by direct contact rather than a non-contact issue, which is considered a more positive sign. Fever head coach Stephanie White is expected to provide an update following the game.
Boston has already dealt with an injury scare this season after suffering a lower-leg issue in May, but she missed only one game. Indiana hopes its star center avoids an extended absence as the team prepares for the final stretch of the season.
